For the past week I've had a headache it started out with being one of the worst headaches ever I've been dizzy and light headed with ears ringing for the past week and a constant headache that varies in pain yesterday I found my occipital node is swollen and if I push anywhere on it or on the left side of my head I feel pressure and it hurts in my face all through the left side of my face and in my eye I've been having awful muscle spasms in my neck and body and now there is a constant dull pain still in the left side of my head that will not go away I hear cracking and popping in my head often since it started too plz help this is killing me what could it be? The headaches get to almost unbearable and sometimes it's just a dull agitation

Hi, this does not seem like lymphoma but it *is* something that should be checked out. Maybe there is some infection, such as in the ear. Maybe then the node has swollen and is pressing on a nerve.

Is there any fever?
