do you guys ever get pain in the base of your skull? like right where your head and your neck meet? i probably slept in a weird position or something but now it's giving me a headache. headaches caused by neck pain are the worst because i haven't figured out quite how to get rid of them.

i have shop orders to do. go away, headache

Sometimes. I don't get headaches often but when I do they're brutal.

I have experienced that and I also can't figure out how to treat it. It's one of the worst.

I've been getting sporadic sharp headaches and can't really beat those.

i was having constant headaches for a while, then i visited my chiropractor and they've pretty much gone away.
i still get headaches but its not constant.

it does sound like it could be a sleeping position problem for you though :<
i hope you figure it out.
how do you sleep?
what kind of pillow do you use?
i have to use pillows for stomach sleepers or i get awful neck pain and headaches

@Lithium: are those like ice pick headaches? super painful but they only last for a few seconds/minutes and then they're gone
@pixiebuns: i sleep in all sorts of ways but i'm pretty sure none of them are good positions lol. i usually have to lay on my side or i can't fall asleep. when i was a kid i used to move around a lot in my sleep but i think that's stopped

@toxxic: I used to have those headaches and went to the doctor for them. he told me that, when the muscles there cramp up, you get less blood to your head and that causes headaches.Messaging your neck makes them relax and, if they're relaxed enough, your headache will go away too.

@Lithium: i kind of wish i had those instead of migraines that last hours but i've also heard ice pick headaches are so much more painful
@Tuijp: that makes sense. if only i had someone to massage my neck for me lol.

My pillow sucks so I get headaches like that a lot.
I need to just get a new one so I can stop sleeping weird.
