is it a tension headache when your neck is tense, stiff and the back of your head feels like it's going to explode?

Posted by katieN

I can hardly stand noise and have to literally hold the back of my head...nothing short of excedrin migraine helps...it starts before i get up in the morning and recurs throughout the day and evening.  I sometimes am nauseous...should i be worried as I am not finding anything on headaches where the back of your head pounds and feels like it will explode?  Thanks for your help.
