A member asked:
My mom has been worried because she feels like her head or skull is reshaping or feels different. she's 54 years old. normal or should she be worried?

Visualize her head: It is not unusual to have the sensation that the head is changing. That is because the scalp is full of nerves. If you are worried about the skull itself changing, that is less likely. The skull itself doesnot have many nerve endings. You should start by visualizing the head and seeing if there are any bumps or changes that you can visualize. If you find something, take that info to your dr.
