Bout 6 years i feel like the left side of my head bothers me the left side of my head has a tender spot. sum times light headed. could it be cancer?

Highly doubtful: Anything going on for that long is most likely nothing serious to worry about - the tender spot may just be an oversensitive region of the muscle/nerves that commonly occurs. I wouldn't worry about it unless it becomes more frequent or constant, or increases in severity.
