Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to occipital neuralgia.
Occipital neuralgia is a condition in which the nerves that run from the top of the spinal cord up through the scalp, called the occipital nerves, are inflamed.
I suggest using anti inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day.
If the symptoms continue, I suggest to see a neurologist or a rheumatologist and get evaluated.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
