Pain in back of head.

[vanilla1969]

Does anybody else get the pain in the back of the head where those two boney spots are? It use to only happen when I would laugh real hard and now for the first time it happened when I was only picking up clothes to wash last night. It’s dull but painful.

Also I think I have TMJ I’ve always had issues with my jaw not closing all the way are opening all the way every so often and I also get the feeling like my jaw is popped out of joint when I chew. Three weeks ago it popped real loud and then it felt like something stabbed me in the inside of my ear. It brought tears to my eyes it hurt so badly. Could TMJ cause the back head pain or all the funny head feelings I have?

Who would I go to for TMJ?

TMJ can cause head pain and headaches. I've had pain in the back of the head as well. You sound like you have TMJ with all the popping and jaw problems. I believe you would go to a dentist for TMJ. My last dentist diagnosed me with it after he did some examinations and measurements o my jaw and how it closes and opens. He suggested a custom mouth guard to help slowly position my jaw where its suppose to be but those things are terribly expensive. I have ear issues and jaw crackling in that side as well.
