Some of them innervate the greater occipital nerves which Can cause many headaches. A PMR doc can evaluate this, prescribe physical therapy or give injections to relax muscles or desensitize nerves, and meds to help. Cervical pillows can help til them]n. Good luck

I have a whiplash in my neck. I also was told that the curve of my neck is going the wrong way. Today I have a mild burning headache that radiates from back of head to forehead. Was recently in car wreck. Could this be nerve damage?
