[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for posting your query. I have read your symptoms and MRI brain findings in details. Based on the MRI findings, there is a mass lesion in the brain, and most likely it is a vascular (related to blood vessels in the brain) mass lesion. It has already bled earlier (as evidenced by hemosiderin deposits) and there is a risk of bleeding in the future too. Common symptoms could be headaches, seizures (fits) and weakness of arm or leg if there is re bleeding in the mass lesion. So, I would think surgery is the best option for you. For headache relief, you can use tramadol or ibuprofen tablets. I hope it helps. Please get back if you have any more queries. Best wishes, Chat Doctor.
