What Does Persistent Pain In The Back Of The Head Suggest?

I have a headache in the back of my head for 7 days now. I have gone to the chiropractor and doctor. The doctor gave my a Toradol shot and sent me home with Sumatriptan. That was on Friday, I am still no better today. I have already took the max 4 of Sumatriptan today. I need relief! Should I go to the ER?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, most of the time such headache are functional in origin and may comes around within days some time it may take couple of days but later or sooner it comes around, and this is nothing to worry even no need to go to ER unless it is very severe and causes some serious symptoms, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
