Cause Of Headache And Pain In Neck And Jaw?

I have been having these headaches only on my left side for months and it hurts my neck and jaw very bad. Sometimes my left arm will go numb too. I get very nautious when this happens because I black out and it makes me nervous. A few weeks ago I noticed a lump under my armpit and I thought it would go away and now it had gotten bigger and is a little tender. I don t know what could be the cause to all of this but it s making me very nervous Mattie

Hello,

Pain in the neck and jaw, numbness in one arm may indicate cervical spine degenerative disease that is compressing the nerves.

Lump on the armpit may be an enlarged lymph node that may indicate infection or other conditions that are accompanied by enlarged lymph nodes.

In my opinion, you need a thorough medical examination for your issues, and you should start by discussing with your primary care Doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
