Hi,
How are you? Occipital neuralgia presents with piercing, throbbing, or electric-shock-like chronic pain in the upper neck, back of the head, and behind the ears. The pain is caused by irritation or injury to the nerves, which can be the result of trauma to the back of the head or pinching of the nerves by overly tight neck muscles. Frequent lengthy periods of keeping the head in a downward and forward position such as in your case, is a risk factor for occipital neuralgia. Treatment is generally symptomatic and includes massage and rest. Local nerve blocks and injections of steroids directly into the affected area may also help. Recovery is usually complete after the bout of pain has ended and the nerve damage repaired. Inform your doctor if the medication you are taking is not working for proper management. Take care and do keep us posted.
Hi,
Here's an idea that may help you. On Youtube look for the combination of these words: 'Atlas orthogonal correction'.
I hope this may help you, best of luck.
