What Causes Pain In Back Of Head?

Hi, I have a 6 year old who complains thatthe back of his head hurts. It has been going on for about 4 months now. It doesnt happen often but atleast 4 times that I can remember. The time before this one was last month and he just laid down and cried, and he usually never cries. He does nothave a fever or any other symptoms, should I be concerned that it is something bad?

Hi,

Kindly consult with a pediatrician as soon as possible. Sometime such pains can be secondary to wrong postures. I hope he is not a frequent user of mobile phone that can be one of the common causes these days for wrong cervical posture.

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

Regards,
Dr. Imranullah, Psychiatrist
