Word of advice. Massage the muscles at the base of your skull until they are so tender u can’t touch em. Once you do that just keep massaging very deeply and you will relieve your head pain.
Thank you, that appears to really help with sharp stabbing pain.
Where you are pointing at 00:45 and 2:10 - that is *exactly* where I’m having trouble! It’s not the head…not a headache…more neck and referred ear pain, it’s bloody awful! How you describe the nerve pain was spot on too! Gonna try your exercises! Thank you for sharing this! :)
Thank yuuu! The pain went down like 90%. God bless!
That's great to hear!
This might be it! My neck released some crackles immediately when I did the chin tuck, no pain involved. My SCM's on both sides are relatively tight as well, definitely feel more of a stretch on that.
Laying down with no pillow seems to offer relief when it's feeling achey. Also doing back day (focus on traps and rhomboids) rids the pain all together, and also kicks my lower back pain funnily enough.
I used to play a lot of computer games in my younger days. I'm also at a newish job where I'm bending over a lot, with my head up/back, which is where I'll get the sharp pain on occasion. Keeping it stiff/slightly tucked seems to avoid troubles. Seems like I know what to do; SCM and chin tuck stretches, and back days at the gym lol.
Im scared to damage it by doing this because its sensitive don't wanna get myself brain damage
Cervicogenic migraines absolutely suck. I'll have to work on this and follow your other vids. Thanks.
Thank you, these stretches feel so good! Ive been suffering with this for a while, excited to have a solution.
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! This is my third day suffering from throbbing sharp pain behind my ear. The second stretch exercise you recommended is relieving the pain. I'm going to keep stretching throughout the day❤❤❤❤❤
Keep it up! 👏
Wow it worked so quickly.. thank u so much.. so much relief.. ❤❤
Welcome 😊
Wonderful instant relief for me ❤
Thank you for this! really helps
I’ve had this pain for almost 6 months now, it’s an on going headache low left side. I’ve been to doctors and chiropractors. Should I see a neurologist now? This pain is beyond painful. I want to be healed. 😢when I move certain ways I feel a bad pinch. I also feel a small bump left side lower. I’m scared. Wondering if I should get an MRI AS WELL.
Hello - I am going on 2 months with this pain. I've tried chiropractor, physical therapist, dry needling, medications. The pain is in the same location the low left side of my head. I'm going to see a neurologist in a week. Wondering if you have found any solutions at all. Good luck!
Mine started on Dec11, 2022. Excruciating pain on my lower left side that traveled upwards to the back of my left eye. Went to 2 different ER's for CT scans. No tumors or anything life threatening. 2 days ago I did a Brain MRI and now waiting to see my neurologist. But Occipital neuralgia is what I think I have. No over the counter meds work nor my Ubrelvy or Imtrex work either. Heat- Hot shower, the hottest I can withstand for 10min hitting my head on the painful area kinda works then I rub IronMan ActivIce roll on on my painful areas, it's like Icy hot. Then I lay down with my head on an ice pack on my back lower left head and another on my top left head over my eye and it kinda eases it. But no doubt pain is unbearable and debilitating. I've been off and on at work trying to live with the pain. I will give an update i see my neurologist again.
@@hollyboyle8116 have you gone to the neurologist?

@backintelligence Have you ever had any clients with complaints of vertigo from occipital Nueralgia? I get it when massaging the muscles you discussed in this video so I’m curious if this is a thing or if it’s just me then. I’m being seen by a nuerologist but they’re ofc isn’t having me come back till November due to their busy schedule
Yes, I experienced vertigo frequently from getting a massage in this area after many doctor visits, MRIs & trips to chiropractors. A new chiropractor finally told me what I was experiencing & should me these stretches to relieve the occipital muscles & nerve pain.
Yes I know what intense pain you're talking about I had it happened once in January and it was so intense that I could not take it and I do not take pain pills. I had some pain pills left over from my Hysterectomy that I had a couple years earlier and I took a couple of those and they didn't even take the pain away it was that extreme I was so emotional from the pain. I couldn't take it and I finally went into the doctor and they gave me a high dose Anti-inflammatory shot. It worked 45 minutes later the pain was gone I called the doctor's office to tell them I was so grateful because I was literally crying in the waiting room from the pain. The only problem is I woke up in the middle of the night with a Diverticulitis flared up I guess people with diverticulitis should not have that high of a dose of Anti-inflammatory because it can irritate the Diverticulitis so then I had that to deal with but I was so grateful to have the pain in my neck gone I didn't even care about the flare up even though I was throwing up all night and had stomach cramps and diarrhea😢
Occipital Neuralgia is a pain in the a##...😢😮💨😬😬😬i did try some while watching these exercises, slightly better!!! Thankyou ☺️🌷
You got this!
@@BackIntelligence yeah, it happens because of stress. 😥😥😬😬the whole of my half head and neck aches. It's terrible 😔
hey is your left shoulder lifted a bit?
Can this condition induced other referred symptoms like heart palpitations and shortness of breath?
Instant relief doc this all started when i stretched my neck awkwardly if it ain’t broke don’t fix it
Great to hear it helped!
Does anyone know what causes the blistery feeling is caused from.
I know it's tmn but I just can't figure out the blistery stuff I'm in constant pain from it.thanks
5:37 is it safe rolling directly over the spine in this neck area?
I have a hernaited C6 that has given me cervicogenic headaches for over 6 months. And it is where he is explaining. It is horrible.
I have been having pain at the back of my neck, sometime I do have a pain, and head ache, but my concern most is the bump at the back of my right neck to my Occipical that has been a year now that never go away, hoping this exercise works for me, Ive'd seen many Doctor regarding my back pain, said that i am just nervous, and one Doctor said its Occipical its tiny, nothing to worry, wait till it gets big? one Doctor said need to take magnesium. Keep seaching for exercise hoping that this will work.
How are you now?
8 years now daily pain terrible pain
Chin tucks make me feel the impigment but if i put my fingers i that area i dont feel it. Can i do the stretch with my finger pressing that area to avoid the impigment feeling?
Im 15 and i believe this is what i may have but i dont know yet. but at this point its so painful im trying to do anything.
I have been of school ever since may this year.
Ive had this pain for the past 7 years
And end of may this year i have a siezure im not sure if thats for the ospital neuralgia.
But im hoping this will help.
The doctors just aren't helping or doing much I have seen a chiropractor for meny months but it's only giving relief for a couple of days. And seen alot of people to help and aren't doing much so it's now a matter of putting it into my own hands because nothing is helping. And this might...
@@treetee_gd Sorry to hear about your situation. If you are anywhere near a university hospital or other major medical center, that might be a good place for you to be evaluated if you are not getting anywhere with your usual doctors.
I know it's been a year but I really hope you were able to find help for your pain and that you are doing good now ❤
I have a denneroller for cervical curve does using this help or make it worse
I have had pain in the left side of neck under jaw midway between throat and ear for 3 months. No one can figure it out. Could pinched nerve or muscle strain last for months?
You can go to a good Osteopath that just does manipulation. Also find a good Chiropractor. I have had headaches from neck pain and being out of alignment. But I do not know about your symptoms.. I am going g to go to a Naturalpath..who does Prozolone injections...It is Ozone Therapy.and it is natural .
How are you feeling now? I’m having ear pain due to neck injury
U guys feel good now
maybe something with the less occipital nerv?
@@noelavalos2558 U do too
Should I pull through the pain when I do these exercises? It hurts
No, if it's causing pain then this is not the right exercise for you.
Chin tucks are what gave me the pain lol
i get mainly the nausea dizzyness, sux
Do you feel all the time or when you look down?
@@simashrikour2023 Not dizzyness just unbalanced like somebody pushed you.
sorry guys, it's constant, not spinning but like car sick nausea dizzy,
How can we cure the nerv that causes that pain
You have to first release the nerve thats entrapped in order to heal the nerve
@@cantseeshadowand how a nerve can be released?
Time will do the cure... Hold on... Goodluck...
I think you can have a nerve block for occipital neuralgia
gabapentin, maybe. Sadly
Is it possible for your occiput bone to get out of place? Many chiropractors believe adjusting the bone back to its original placement will heal these headaches. Thoughts on this?
if your occipital bone is "out of place" that's called a basal skull fracture and you would have major major head trauma and are probably in the ICU. What an utter scam.
my husband tried bone setting theraphy, yeah it heals for a while but it came back after a month, occipital neuralgia is really hard to treat 😔
No adjustments in the neck/head!
It's not a bone. They are muscles. And there is also a nerve passing through that can get impinged.
Well, I don't know. When I started having this pain, my bones in that spot (base of the skull) felt like they were slightly popped out of place...it was incredibly painful
Looking down triggers my O.N. Big time
Looking down also give me a wave of pain, hard to describe but it feels like the contents of my head tipped over.
It triggers my tinnitus and the top of my head tingles :(
Same problem,i feel dizzy too
Same here. I get vertigo type wen I look down or sit and get up. But whats the solution. Pain is bad
