Hi I am 22 and for about 2 months now I have had this light headache. It is faint and anywhere from the top to back of my head, usually on the right side. It comes and goes throughout the day. When I throw my head back and far as it will go, there is a popping sound in my neck and I feel a pressure pain in my neck and upper spine area. My ears have been hurting also. Along with all of this my chest and upper back hurt, but it doesn't hurt when I breath. The doctor acts stumped but is doing muscle test. He has gave me samples of Mobic, but that doesn't help. I just have a feeling that something is wrong with my head. All of these problems started around the same time. Can anyone please help me?

Your doc could very well be on the right track, perhaps its something to do with muscles and pinched nerves.

On another note however, it could be an issue with your neck spine or your head. You could get an Xray of your Cervical Spine and an MRI of your Cervical Spine. For your brain you can get an MRI or a CT of your brain, which ever is better for finding issues with the brain.

If you have some sort of narrowing going on in in your spinal collum or a disc problem, that could be causing some or all of your symptoms, but just in case it is something to do with the brain, it doesn't hurt to get that checked out as well. I don't want to start to worry you by listing possible things it could be and cause unnecessary anxiety, so to give yourself peice of mind, ask your doc if you could have some or all of these tests done if you want them done, there's no reason that he shouldn't let you. Let us know what they find, Good Luck and God Bless! :angel:
