Headaches/Migraines - Throbbing pain in back of Head


Expert: Dr. Tron Malachowski - 10/31/2009

Question
About a week ago I was in the gym and twisted my neck slightly. The result was a lightheaded detached sensation with a small amount of aura. Since I woke up the following day, I've had a moderate to severe throbbing headache in the back of my head (between my ears). The pain worsens and becomes disorientating when i stand up move my head rapidly. Advil as an anti inflammatory seems to help. Does this sound like anything you've experienced?

Thanks,

MIke

Answer
Michael,

I see this problem everyday in my office. Its called nerve pressure. Twisting that neck slightly will stretch the dura mater and meninges that surround your nerve system. Stretching these delicate areas will cause the problems you are experiencing.

Their are only a handful of Doctors that are properly trained to care for this type of issue. If you would like, let me know what part of the country you live in and I will do my best to send you where you need to go.

IN Health,

Dr. T
