Headache in Back of head/upper neck?

Question

The past few days I've been experiencing headaches in the back of my head or upper neck area. Not sure why..... Any ideas?

Answer 1

This can sometimes occur because of stress and also because of the weather if the barometer is going up or down. I get barometric pressure type headaches every so often and I have to have a bit stronger medication to help the headaches because aspirin alone isn't enough to help them.

I would recommend checking with your doctor as well to see what they say.

Answer 2

There is no medicine for H/A OR MIGRAINE. Not only these but for almost all painful diseases. Hence they become chronic.
Acidity, excessive wind, cold , heat, sour food and sinusitis, constipation, intestinal inflammation;
Blockage in the flow of Vital Energy are their causes. None of them can be treated with medicine. Our 100% success in treating migraine &H/A confirms it.
Acupuncture is the best treatment. I can treat it with naturopathy and YOG, but how can you manage pl see.
Acidity and probably constipation/inflammation of intestines is cause of your H/A if it's summer.
Avoid late sleeping if possible; worry, spicy food, sour fruits, stale bakery foods and alcohole.
Sweet foods, COCOANUT WATER,sweet fruits, milk, rice, SPROUTS, SALADS and good sleep will help you.
But you try one herbal remedy- two drops of drumstick leaves' juice in opposite nostril if one side pains and both nostrils if full H/A will give you rescue. Betel leaf helps but it isvery strong.
If it is acute pl search a painful point 3-6 mm behind your thumb nail and press it, H/A will disappear within 30 seconds.
