@the.anatomy.hub2: Pain at the Back of Your Head? This Nerve May Be Irritated Does pain start at the base of your skull and travel toward the back or top of your head? This 3D animation shows how tension in the deep suboccipital muscles and irritation around the greater occipital nerve may contribute to sharp, burning, or headache-like pain-especially during neck movement. Save this video and share it with someone who frequently experiences pain at the base of the skull. Where does your pain begin: the neck, behind the ear, or the back of the head?#OccipitalNeuralgia #GreaterOccipitalNerve #Headache #neckpain #SuboccipitalMuscles
