Somebody told me once that migraines are bad partly because of inflammation (presumably due to inappropriate bloodflow) of the whatever brainlayer outer ones, so it might, a little bit.

Can your medical knowledge tell me whether my head hurts because,

* leftover problems due to tumor pressing against my brain there for many years,

* they snipped out a little of my meninges when removing the tumor,

* there is a metal plate there now,

* the muscle tissue over top of where the surgery was done has atrophied leaving a little dent, so my head’s less-well-insulated there, and brain blood-flow doesn’t like temperature differentials,

* some combination of the above/some other thing?

I have been assuming the temperature differential thing is significant because I am most likely to get localized tumor-region headaches upon experiencing a fast change in body temperature, like going outside without a hat in winter, or taking a hot shower when the house is cold.
