Based on your symptoms, this does sound like a cervicogenic headache, but persistent or worsening headaches should be reassessed to ensure there is no other underlying cause. Continue physiotherapy, as improvement often takes several weeks. Maintaining good posture, regular neck stretching exercises, avoiding prolonged screen time, and using an appropriate pillow can also help reduce symptoms. The anxiety you experience during the headache can further increase muscle tightness and worsen the pain, creating a vicious cycle. If the headaches continue despite medications and physiotherapy, I would recommend consulting a neurologist or spine specialist for a detailed examination. An MRI of the cervical spine, and if clinically indicated, MRI brain, may be required to exclude other causes. If you develop limb weakness, numbness, imbalance, or bladder/bowel symptoms, seek medical attention promptly.
