What causes a headache?

Patient's question:

The CT doctor has not confirmed it yet, saying it's a bit like a calcification nodule. The April physical examination result showed a left temporal arachnoid cyst, but there was no pain at the time, and it was not paid attention to.

Doctor's answer:

In this case, it may also be related to some factors of vasospasm, so it doesn't necessarily have to be caused by an arachnoid cyst. Of course, this situation could also be due to spasm symptoms caused by local irritation. If the headache is indeed caused by an arachnoid cyst, it is best to confirm the diagnosis clearly, which would require surgical treatment. If the headache is not caused by an arachnoid cyst, conservative treatment can be considered.
