Hi.

How long your daughter been experiencing that pain? Has your daughter recently suffered a head injury?

Pain at the back of the head can be caused by many conditions including nerve impingement, disc bulging or atlantoaxial subluxation. It would be best to bring your daughter to a physician to undergo a complete medical and neurological examination to determine the cause of her symptoms.  

Good luck.
