Dear

By definition arthritis is an inflammation of joint or joints. Therefore a joint needs to be involved for any process to be termed arthritis. Such joints which can be affected by arthritis are not present in skull or head.
But such joints are present at base of skull where cervical spine starts and these joints can be affected.
