What Causes Severe Headaches And Popping At The Back Of The Head?
I ve had a severe headache since the 9th of April. It feels like I have bubble wrap popping in the back of my head at my mastoid areas and my brain stem. Can you please give me any idea of what might be going on. I am always active doing something but since this started I can t seem to do much. It is the worse headache I have ever experienced.
