A member asked:
I am 2 months post surgery from posterior neurosurgery for stenosis of t1. now having debilitating headaches pounding to my eyes from back head?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Headache Spine Surg: Symptoms are consistent with a spinal fluid leak. Bed rest, fluids, caffeine, and a compressive dressing are conservative treatment options. Headaches will usually resolve as scar tissue forms around the spinal cover (dura mater). Surgery to close the leak for persistent symptoms is sometimes necessary. A follow up consult with your surgeon is indicated.
