Head and neck pain

by johnson5, Sep 02, 2008 01:52PM
I have been having neck, shoulder, and pain in the back of my head for about 2 years, The pain in the back of my head is severe enough to where it hurts to sleep on it or turn my head, I get migraines with my cycle but these are different. I feel dizzy often It is mostly on my left side of my head and neck and shoulder. My headaches are everyday, nothing makes them better all the way. I have taken pain killers, motrin.. nothing works. I exercise my neck and shoulders but still no relief. What could this be, I feel bad every day.. I cant even seem to function most days. Thank you.

Hi,

How are you? It is possible that the headache is due to cervical spine issue like cervical sponydylitis.
Other causes can be sinusitis, poor eyesight, high BP, ear infections, and neurological lesions like brain tumors.
This needs further evaluation and most likely an MRI of head and neck is required.
Please consult a neurologist at your earliest. Take care!
