Is it bad if the back of the left side of my head tingles ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Muscle spasm: likely you have muscle spasm of the paravertebral muscles causing tingling in the region of the greater occipital nerve. If it is not continuous, it is generally self-limiting and go away. It does not go away, best check with her doctor.
