Mild headaches in the back of head/neck

2017-07-04 15:44:27
Hello, I would like to aks about this headache I have been having in the back of the right side of my head for a while now. It comes and goes frequently but never indefinitely. I would like to know if this could be because of bad posture or prolonged computer use? I would just like to know if this is something to take care of immediately or not.
