Head Sways When Working With Computer. What Could Be The Reason?

I noticed my head automatically sways from right to left and left to right again... This is especially noticeable when I work with the computer and start walking... I receive a reprise for this condition when I drive or when I exercise... This happened like 1 1/2 months ago and my dr is unable provide an answer of what is causing the swaying... Was wondering whether you have any ideas what is causing it?

could be a neck muscle contraction or involuntary spasm
these occur if any supplying nerve root is irritable
MRI cervical spine can look for nerve root state
physiotherapy and muscle relaxants will help
