Why does the back of my head hurt?

Why does the back of my head hurt, and neck and shoulders?

  • Answer:

    REASON: may be due to less sleep, sometime cervical rib too causes this pain but it is associated, with numbness in finger during sleep, but in your case, anxiety and tension looks more logical. try to sleep peacefully and if you wake up early in the morning as a routine then tension is the underlying cause. Remember pain at the base of skull and associated with pain in neck and pain on both sides of neck or shoulder with stiffness is due to tension and anxiety. TREATMENT: any off the counter muscle relaxant, good night sleep will help, or try Tylenol. any pain medicine should always be taken with food. aspirin is a good choice but i never recommends this, but the choice is yours. Sometime a slow massage along with hot or cold packs is recommended, sometime its soothing, always consult your family physician,or you pharmacist who have all your record of drug allergies. NOTE: please always consult your doctor who can check you physically, and since i have not examined you physically i have given you bookish knowledge.

Hot bag deffo. Cold will just tense your muscles up and make things worse. Not too hot though just nice and warm like a hot water bottle.

looks like your exposed to radio wave a lot back of head usually function in vision and neck and shoulder happen because of sitting down one place without stretch everyone hour of sitting down front of computer please look far away and stretch if that dosen't work you have spine cord misplace you need to go see doctor for that x.x you have to careful if your going to use hot pad incase if you get infected it going to cause huge problem usually hot pad is for bones cold pad is for muscle so you don't want to risk using hot pad before talk to doctor just keep in mind that there is more than 3000000 of virus and bacteria that doctor can't cure and every year there is 80 000 people die in north america because of infection
