What Causes Pain And Tenderness In The Back Of The Head?

Pulled muscle from playing hockey this weekend. It hurt right away after crashing into the boards. 2 bug bite about a week ago or. 3 symptom from donating blood?

Hello!
Welcome on Healthcaremagic!
You should know that your symptoms could be related to tension type headache, probably related to your physical exertion during Hockey.
There is nothing to worry about!
I would just recommend using acetaminophen. A cervical spine X ray study would help exclude a bulging disk.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Best wishes, Dr. Aida
