A member asked:
Could an old skull injury cause current headaches and other symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes it can: Posttraumatic headaches can be either tension headaches or migraines and any injury where the skull was actually injured can cause these types of headaches. Postural changes related to aging can cause delayed start of these post-traumatic headaches as well.
