Neurologist doubts neck pain from migraine

Hey roseann4z, I’ve been dealing with tough headaches too, and I actually found a lot of useful info on headachesurgery.com. They helped me understand that sometimes headaches from the base of the skull can be related to nerve irritation, like occipital neuralgia, which feels different from classic migraines.

After learning about this, I tried Botox treatment through a specialist recommended there, and it really helped reduce my pain and neck tightness over time. It wasn’t an overnight fix, but definitely better than just popping more pills.

I also found that physical therapy focused on my neck made a big difference alongside the treatment. If you haven’t checked out that site, it might be worth a look or mentioning it to your neurologist.

Hope you find something that works for you!
