Problems with the occipital nerve can cause this. I have some of the same pain from my occipital nerve problems.

Thank you for your thoughts. I'm relieved someone actually responded to me. It seems as if nobody can help me and my doctor only suggested maybe it was a muscle contracting. What you suggested sounds like a valid opinion. Maybe I'll look into this online and try to read up on it. Thanks and any other input you have would be appreciated.

An EMG would be helpful to determine if she has nerve problems and which one may be affected.I have Occipital Neuralgia and my pain is on the top of my scalp and at the base of my neck.
