Would suggest managing the neck issues with physical therapy and appropriate exercises, such as McKenzie's approaches. Ask your neurologist about the type of headaches, which may be triggered by neck symptoms, and if anti-migraine-type drugs might be useful. We can provide more with a virtual consult (www.connect@healthtap.com)
