I was non functional for the remainder of the day. Today I still have a dull aching pain at the back of my head and into my neck.

Hi.
I've gone through your query and I can understand your anxiety.

Sometimes sexual excitement causes headaches due to contraction of muscles in head and neck.

Repeated episodes of headaches are precipitated by sexual activity, especially orgasms. Such headaches are termed as " benign orgasmic headaches" and are caused by a reversible cerebral artery spasm. However, they are not life threatening.

I advice you to take, analgesics.

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

Regards,
Dr. Yogapriya V, General and family physician.
