What Causes Frequent Migraines While Having Linear Indentation On Right Skull?

I am 60 years old and have frequent intractable migraines since 1996m and have not worked since 1999. I am in fair health otherwise and have not ever smoked. I had a my thyroid removed 2 years ago due to multiple large and growing nodules. I am on 75mcg of levothyroxin. A couple of months ago, I noticed my skull, at the crown, had an round indention, approximately quarter-size, with slight pain when touched. Now, in the indention is another indention the size of a finger print. Oh, it started with a linear indention on the top-right of my head where I had a hit it in an auto accident. The bump grew immediately after impact, but was completely gone within 3 hours because I had put an ice pack on it within ten minutes. A few months later a slight linear indention showed up on the top-left of my skull. The largest and deepest is the one at the crown. Thank you. Ann

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

The changes in momentum of brain during particular injury counter parts can pause a long issue of chronic headache of varying intensity depending upon the area of impact involved. However, if you can provide me your latest scan reports of MRI or CT scan, further discussion would be more of clinical relevance particularly.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
