Lump On Back Of Neck. Have Bad Headache And Diarrhoea. Feel Dizzy At Times. Solution?
I have recently found a lump on the back of my neck that is almost in the center but more to the left side close to the bottom of my skull . I also have a bad headache and Diarrhea started over the last few days. Not sure if thats related or not. Over the last 2 months I lose my balance periodically. My dogs wake me in the middle of the night and when i get up to take them out I do feel dizzy and my eyes dont focus well at all. Ive had no vision problems in the past

Hi,
First & foremost is get yourself checked by your physician for detailed physical examination of lump & if required MRI brain & spine depending upon the examination findings. I sincerely feel that your headache, diarrhoea & 1 incidence of dizziness after being woken up in middle of the night might not be interrelated & because of your concern about your health, you are adding them up. So, relax. You can try any simple analgesics like paracetamol, ibuprofen, naproxen to be taken immediately at the start of headache & see how the pain responds. In the meantime visit your doctor & you can get back to me with results his examination findings for further help. Good Luck
