What Causes Pain Behind The Head After Walking On The Treadmill?

I was walking on the treadmill yesterday and the base of my skull made a very loud pop. It caused an extreme pounding in the back of my head. The pain has kept me up all night. It calms down if I lay flat and don’t move my head. I am also fused from c2 to t1. If I look side to side there is a grinding sound. If I stand up it feels like my heart is pounding hard in the back of my head. I did get migraines be for my fusion but this doesn’t hav the same feeling. Is this anything I should be concerned about?
