Could Void Feeling In The Front Right Side Of Brain Be Neuro Related Problem?

Yes, I am a 62 year old female studying criminology. 4th semester recently I signed up for algebra. I litterally feel in the front right side if my brain above the eyebrow area a void in the brain. The feeling causes extreme fatique above my right eye, and confusion in that area with numbers and signs within a 45 minutes I have to lay down. I do not havea fear of numbers nor, doni have a disklike or lke of math within itself. Inliterrally feel a void in this area of my brain physcially. Is this possible? If so is it neuro related?

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

At 62 years, the brain might have changes sue to aging. The brain void is a symptom that might be more virtual than real. Most humans start feeling fatigue if concentrating hard and trying to remember things at an elderly age. This is because there is a lot of information already being processed in your brain and further addition of knowledge might reduce the information processing time just as in a computer. Since you do not have any other symptoms like headache or seizure, this might resolve if you allow yourself to relax and take regular breaks when working for long hours. However, if these thoughts are occurring frequently then please consult a neuro and get clinically examined and imaging like CT scan or MRI scan brain done.
