Today I took head bath and after that I used hair drier. In the evening I had severe headache which still continues. My question is whether the heater will make any changes in the brain and spoil the inner parts as I am having CSVD & Atrophy. Anybody pl.clarify.

@venki I am really sorry to hear your headaches are continuing. I don't know how a hair drier would affect the inner parts of the brain but hot is hot and a hair drier can put out a lot of heat. I'm guessing if it's too close it can burn the scalp. Have you talked to your doctor about it? Most of the time when I use a hair drier (I don't have that much hair!) it's on the cool setting as you don't necessarily need the heat to dry the hair.
