A member asked:

Craniotomy 2.5 yrs ago, lump on incision that keeps leaking, its very tender, headaches on and off along with some dizziness/lightheadedness?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Too long: you need to bring to the attention of your neurosurgeon , may be leaking CSF . If you are then may need a procedure to seal it off. Bring to your doctors attention.
