A member asked:
What does it mean when you have "old blood" in your brain from an hematoma from when you were younger. what is the treatment if its causing headaches?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
MRI report: Years after the bleeding, blood products called hemosiderin can be visualized. This is not a cause of your current headaches, and depending on the character of the head pain, such as migraine, treatment is typically directly either preventatively or abortively.
