Loud grinding sound in base of scull (neck) when turning head. strong occipital headache. have ehlers danlos. is it chiari malformation? other cause?

See your doctor : The grinding is generally a sign of digerati on in the facets, or neck joints. As an ED person, your ligaments which hold the bones in place are most likely lax, allowing excess movement. While,this could. Rear a chairing type malformation, I think arthritis is a more common answer. An X Ray will be telling
