Can neck problems cause pain in the head?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. The pain is not due to bone, as the pain will be constant and does not subside on turning the head. Given that it does subside with the turning of your head, it can be due to the tendon that connects your neck and head, like the sternocleidomastoid or trapezius muscle. It is most likely a muscle spasm or slight strain, depending on how long it has been there and how bad it is. If it is mild to moderate, I suggest you apply a hot compress. I hope this helps. Thank you.
