With a Duration of 5 days, I would go see ur Family Doctor or a Chiropractor. You may be referred to a Neurologist or ENT Specialist. Try an ice bag @ the pain site, and an anti-inflammatory medication for relief of the swelling/pain. Hope this helped. Here are a few sites to help you out hopefully. Good luck and take care!

I recommend you see a chiropractor for immediate treatment and diagnosis. I'm including a link where you can find a qualified chiropractor in your area.
Place an ice pack on the back of your head for fifteen minutes, several times a day. This will help with the pain Until you see a chiropractor

I would first recommend that you see a general practitioner. They will diagnose and recommend a specialist if you need one. Could you possibly have an ear infection?
