A member asked:
What could cause sudden intense pain at the back of the head with mild excursion on both sides?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nerve pain: This can be a tic or sudden firing off a nerve impulse--particularly a trapped nerve in the upper neck area. Massage can sometimes help this, but if it is fairly constant, you need to see your internist for an evaluation.
