Default Shunt Pains?

So I've had this shunt since birth, 18 years. It's only been revised once when the tube for one broke. The pains been going on for pretty much all of those 18 years, and it really only hurts when I touch the part of my head where the shunt is located.

Why is that? Could someone explain?

Also, is there a way to get like the pain to stop?


And my last question: What's the chance of getting a shunt removed and actually performing well in life?
