Is There Any Doctor Available To Analyse This Report?
I have been getting migraine headaches occasional for which I got CT brain done. The result of CT scan showed normal except "sclerosed mastoid air cells on both sides". What does this mean? Is it having any relation to my occasional migraines? Do I need to get concerned about this finding? Thanks in advance.

Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
Sclerosed mastoid air cells on both sides is due to chronic mastoiditis.It may be related to chronic middle ear infection.Long term infection in mastoid bones causes loss of normal air cells in mastoid bones.
Matoiditis is not related to migraine.
You should consult ENT specialist
Hope i have answered your query.
Take Care
