I keep trying to crack my neck to see if that helps but it doesn t and the head pain keeps coming back at random spurts of small pain mostly on my right side...top of head and back

Dear sir/mam,
The symptoms you are complaining of are classically seen in patients with increased blood pressure (Hypertension). I suggest you rule that out first before meeting an orthopaedic surgeon to look for any spondylitis. Cracking your neck is not going to help you in any way . Infact it can give rise to some harmful effects and I would advise you not to do it regularly.
