Occipitalis pain is described as pain "deep inside the head". is this actual pain or can this include "brain fog" spaced out type of feeling.constant.

No: More specifically, the occipital area of your head is the back fourth of the head. OP can be caused by muscle and nerve problems outside the skull or by problems inside the skull in the vessels or brain. A "fog" would be problems with thinking, usually due to problems in the brain
