What Causes Headaches And Lump On Neck?

Hi, I am a 43. Have had right sided headaches/Pressure behind right eye, temple and sometimes pins and needles feelings on right side of face for about 3 years. Had terrible pain when this first started and could not raise my right arm without pain. Doc ordered Ct of head but, found nothing. Now I have a dime size hard lump on the back of my neck it is on the right side also. My neck often feels stiff if I turn my head to the right. My pain is dull now. Going back to the doctor again soon. Any ideal what this could be?

Hi,Good Morning-from INDIA.I am Dr.Savaskar M.N.here to take of your health query from HCM virtual Clinic. Thanks for your Health-query to HCM Clinic.
-I studied your query in-depth and I understood your concerns.
-My opinion-this-complex of symptoms and history- is simply a-Cervical Spondylitis with root compression on right side , which is undiagnosed over last 3 yrs time may be by oversight or may be it was not clear symptom complex as its now.
-Remedy-a-Tb NSAID-for 10 days time.
b-Heat Compressess on neck or US treatment to neck and or Cervial Traction SOS / and Cervical Collar-for 2 wks time.
c-Tb Serropetidase-if compression does not regress in 10 days time.
d-Local-Muscle relaxant oint 2 times a day.
e-Tb Neurobion-for 2 wks
d-Tb -Alprax 1 mg hs for 1-2 wks time.
Still consultaton from Ortho-Surgeon and fresh MRI-of Cervical area with head-is a must.This would rule out headache and neck stiffness.
-The lump in the neck is just a coincidental happening and it does not have relation to your headache and neck stiffness and would be taken care by the Surgeon-by Excision if it troubles you.
-Hope this would help you recover fast out of the Lump anxiety.
Wellcome to HCM again for better Health and Living.
