What Causes Headaches Radiating To The Neck Along With Low Grade Fever?

My head has been hurting a lot lately and when it starts to hurt I notice I start running a low grade fever. About 100.5 to 101. I start feeling the pain all the way from my head and down into my neck and shoulders. I have full range of my neck but it hurts still to bend it to my shoulders. I feel sharp pain then heat and nausea and dizzyness. What is wrong with me?

Hi, I understand your concern.
Considering the symptoms you have mentioned, one rare but important diagnosis to exclude is meningitis or encephalitis. You need to be seen by a qualified Dr and investigated including FBC, CRP etc.
