Causes of pain in the lower right part of the head include brain diseases, diseases of the craniocervical junction, diseases of the cervical spine, and occipital neuralgia. Brain diseases include bleeding, infarction, and tumors in the brain stem and cerebellum, which can cause pain in the lower right part of the head. CT or MRI of the head is needed to confirm the diagnosis. Craniocervical junction diseases can cause similar symptoms, such as common cerebellar tonsillar hernia and syringomyelia, skull base depression, atlantoaxial deformity, etc., which can be diagnosed by MRI or open radiograph of craniocervical junction. Cervical spondylosis or associated occipital neuralgia can cause this phenomenon. It can be diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging of the cervical spine. The treatment method can be symptomatic pain relief treatment, as well as acupuncture, physiotherapy and other methods. If the effect is not satisfactory, local blocking treatment can be given.
