What Causes Dizziness After A Brain Surgery?
I had surgery for brain bleed after a bad fall. They said it was a subdural hematoma and inserted a drain. I recovered with rehab but from time to time I have strange feelings in my head even though I function normally. I am a little off balance from time to time. Is this normal and is it ok for me to get my hair permed?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Headache, dizziness and balance issues are quite common after brain surgery. No need to worry as it will resolve over time. If you experience severe vertigo(spinning sensation) you can take betahistine tablets.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
