I went to neurologist for my headaches and diagnosed me with neck muscle spasm. but i am afraid its something worse because they dont go away?

Could be the neck to: Neck muscle spasm can also cause a headache that does not go away. It should also feel worse with palpation (touching the neck) or head movement. A person can have a headache and neck muscle spasm at the same time also.
