A member asked:

I have an odd feeling in the lower part of the back of my head. a fullness or pressure. comes on in the evening, goes by morning lasts 3 days at a tim?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Head fullness: Fullness or pressure in the back of the head often comes from tight or tense muscles of the neck that insert on the back of the head. Muscle tension progresses through the day and is often worse in the afternoon or evening. The alignment of the neck may be incorrect due to a muscle strain, ligament injury, or early arthritis. See a chiropractor or neurosurgeon for evaluation and treatment.
