Suggest Treatment For Persistent Head, Shoulder And Neck Pain Post An Injury
Can neck pain and shoulder pain cause head pain? I get sharp stabbing pains all over my head. I was in a car accident when I was 21. I have had neck problems scence then. I can touch the top of my neck where my spine feels like it ends and press down and it feels as if something pops. Also I can sometimes turn my head sideways and where I feel it pops in that same spot it will pop on it s own.

Hi,
It could be a contusion or ligament sprain.
As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedic and plan for an MRI scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
