Hello! Welcome on Chat Doctor ! Your symptoms could be related to tension type headache and the chronic degeneration in the cervical spine. Coming to this point, I would recommend starting amitriptyline for the chronic management of the pain. Yoga and physical activity to reinforce your back muscles and correct your posture is also helpful. Hope you will find this answer helpful! Best wishes,
