A member asked:
Migraines up to 4x week caused by neck. neck is always rock hard, stiff, painful. what causing this? could it be cervicogenic headache?

Yes : The neck spasms and migraines can go together or one can mimic the other. Important often to treat both to get the best results. Local options may vary but consider acupuncture as well as behavioral interventions in addition to commonly prescribed meds.
