Does high white cell count protein in blood pain in bones mean cancer?
It is not necessarily cancer. High count of white protein cells in blood indicates that the body is struggling against some kind of infection or any disease. The reason behind this is that the white protein cells are the cells that are responsible for immunity of the body and fight against any harmful or foreign body. So whenever body is attacked by any infection or disease the body fights against it by producing more and more white cells. Yeah but it is also a test that is performed to examine cancer.

Commonly it's a cold headache. Cold Stimulus Headache.
Although we use the term pain for the brain, there is no such thing. The vessels and nerves around the brain are what is causing the "pain" you feel.
Brain freeze is a headache most commonly associated with the quick consumption of cold substances, such as ice cream. When the cold substance comes into contact with your palate or the roof of your mouth and sinus cavities it causes the blood vessels to vasoconstrict or get smaller.
As the palate warms the blood vessels dilate. This rapid constriction and dilation is detected by pain receptors that travel to the brain via the trigaminal nerve, which also serves as one of the major nerves for the facial area. Because the pain signal travels with the signals coming from the face, the brain thinks it is feeling pain in the face that isn't really there, this is called referred pain.
The respiratory areas are widely scattered throughtout the pons and of the brainstem?

Whats weighs more male brain or the female brain?

Is it true that we only use 10 percent of our brains?
Nope! Humans use their whole brains for a wide variety of functions. It’s unclear where this myth started, but it’s been proven false by numerous brain scans showing that the brain is in near-constant complete use.
It is true, however, that only 10 percent of the cells in the brain are neurons; the other 90 percent are support cells called glial cells, but it’s not entirely clear what those are for. It’s also true that there are particular moments where you might only be using 10 percent of your brain, like if you’re sitting still and just daydreaming. But the idea that there’s 90 percent more intelligence tucked away in your grey matter somewhere, and if you could unlock it somehow you’d be the next Einstein—that’s a total myth.
Answer is, "READ your book and stop trying to find the easy way out. You might actually learn something toward your degree instead of trying to find all the answers online." In YO' FACE. :) Cheers.
