Head pain is mostly seen in patients with cervical spondylosis, which can cause neck muscle spasm and contraction. After head lowering, scalp nerve vessels may be involved, manifested as pain in the back of the head, including cervical curvature straightening and cervical disc herniation. If necessary, check cervical MRI for definite diagnosis. Massage therapy and traction therapy can be carried out after onset. If necessary, go to orthopedics for detailed diagnosis and treatment. If the patient has hypertension, it may cause muscle spasms and may also show the above symptoms. At the same time, it may also show dizziness, nausea and vomiting. When necessary, blood pressure should be measured. If it rises, blood pressure regulation treatment should be given. Long-acting drugs are generally used. Irbesartan and amlodipine are commonly used. In addition, if the patient looks down at the mobile phone for a long time, plays with the computer, and works at the desk for a long time, it may cause muscle spasm at the back of the neck. When looking down, the patient may show the above symptoms. The time spent watching the mobile phone and playing with the computer should be reduced.
