I'm 21 year old boy and i'm suffering from headache since childhood and i've done ct brain scan and report says that there is small 6-7mm sized ill defined hypodensity noted involving left parietal lobe s/o acute infract , is this serious?

Not feasible to comment on a lesion seen on imaging in absence of a direct review of films. Your headaches would be best evaluated by a neurologist. Alternatively, to start, a virtual consult here at HT could assess your films and provide further suggestions. (www.connect@healthtap.com)
