Hi,
I am Dr.Bruno. I have read your question and understand your concerns. Let me try to help you
Question 1 : could an external occipital protuberance that s grown in such a way cause any amount of
stress on the occipital nerves, therefore triggering a 24/7 low level headache?
Answer 1 : No
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Now
There is something that can cause a big External Occipital Protuberance as well as the headache you have mentioned
It is constant stress and over action of your neck muscles
The pain also will be relieved by
nerve block So, From What You have told me, I think you are suffering from neck
muscle fatigue I suggest you to
1. stop driving 2 wheelers
2. Avoid Pillows
3. Take
Bed Rest as much as possible
For two weeks and see whether there is any improvement in the headache
In Most Cases, you will see appreciable improvement
If you need any clarification / have doubts / have additional questions / have follow up questions, then please do not hesitate in asking again. I will be happy to answer your questions.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care.
