Hi
Headaches are one of the most common symptoms that can be experienced. Most people will experience a headache at some point of their lives.
They can affect anyone regardless of age and gender
It may be to due to organic causes or it can be due to emotional distress aswell..
Headaches can be stand alone illnesses or the symptom of another condition
Depending on the specific type of headache, they can last for any time between a few hours and several weeks
Primary headaches are caused by problems with or overactivity from pain-sensitive structures in the head
The most common form of primary headache is the tension-type headache
Suggest you to take a pain killer Ibugesic-plus in consultation with your doctor once or twice a day or SOS (if you have gastritis, then a ranitidine 150 mg to be taken half an hour before food and then take the above tablet)
your lump on the right side of the spine may be lymph node enlargement due to infection in neck region, please see the surgeon if it does not subside in few days
You can also do meditation(eg if your age is 27 then 27 mins of meditation is suggested) which will soothen your mind and you can relax
Wish You Good Health
Regards
