I have a very painful lump on the side of my neck. I have gotten ice pick headaches in the past, and I m getting the same feeling in the lump on my neck. It hurts to bend my neck in any direction, and it s giving me constant migraines. The lump had been there for years, and recently just started giving me problems. I ve been having migraines since I was around 7, those are nothing new, but this is just making things so much worse.
