Heavy head and headaches

2017-08-12 06:52:33
I've been having a heavy head for around 10 days now. the muscles in the back of my head and shoulders get stiff, and i also get headaches from time to time. I also feel like my head shakes when i make specific movements; and it has recently gotten worse, now i feel like my brain shakes even when i walk. could this be something serious?

Most such pains are due to stress or anxiety. Take mild anelgesics with Antacid and rest. Get some hot fomentation for the neck.
Next Steps
If pain still persists then consult a Neurospine specialist.
