Pain in the back of the right side of the head can clinically be caused by greater occipital neuralgia. The right side of the greater occipital neuralgia can extend from the back of the head to the top of the head, and in severe cases the patient can have a thread-like pain in the back of the head. The pain is usually more intense and the patient may have a burning pain or throbbing pain. For occipital neuralgia, patients can be given oral antipyretic and analgesic medications, and if necessary, local closure treatment can be given. Pain at the back of the right side of the head can also be seen clinically as a result of cervical spine disease. Due to the herniated cervical disc, the muscles and fascia in the back of the occipital area are in a state of tension and pulling, and the pain in the back of the head can occur. The main treatment is to give traction, acupuncture, massage to relieve cervical spondylosis, and if necessary, patients can also be given small acupuncture and other treatments.
