Severe pain at the back of head near neck during masturbation..

this happened to me......just the other day and im still in pain with it, it was a very....um....vigourous sessin? i feel like my brain popped....am a little concerned cos its been days now :(

i had this happen to me.....the other day in a ...um vigorous session?....its still hurting now :( feels like me brain popped? same place, back of the head, just above the neck, am concerned about it cos its not going away :( 

I am 27 and this has just started in the past week, the first time it happened it literally knocked me off my feet. Im farily certain its high blood pressure as, i also thought it was the lack of breathing and tried breathing more and that seemed to make the headaches worse. but as youll notice the throbbing coincides with your heartbeat so clearly has to do with blood pressure. now if I could just find a way to fix the problem without going to the doctor as im uninsured.

Thankyou, I am relieved as well. I was worried there for a minute. The pain and swelling has been going on for about 2 months now. It start within seconds of beginning masturbation. My neck throbs with an extremely sharp pain only on the right side. I also get a dull headache. This lasts for a day, sometimes two. I have tried laying and sitting in different pisitions that relax the muscles more but nothing seems to work. I get the same result each time.
Time to see the doc. I will try takin a toke right before, as well. It makes sense that it would help.

I'm a 33 year old active male with no history of anything really. But this condition that you describe started to happen to me as well, only the left half of the lower back off my head, roughly where the skull attaches to the neck. I have the rare and enviable situation (for purposes of diagnosis) of knowing exactly when and how it started.

I was weight lifting with my trainer about a week ago. We were working out the traps among many other muscles. As is usual, my trainer helped me stretch a little at the end. He was helping me with the neck stretches where I tilt my head to the side and try to stretch the muscles in the side of the neck. But at one point I felt a slight sharp pain in the left side (possibly slight muscle tear?). Went home and was fine. But the next day, I was rubbing one out (I'm between gf's right now lol) and I felt this throbbing pain where I described. It goes away pretty quickly but then after I still feel something like a very mild swelling in the area for at least a couple of hours.

I went to see my chiropractor thinking an adjustment might help (I get adjusted once a month for general maintenance - no injuries). It did help since my C1 and C2 were out of alignment but it just reduced the severity of the headaches. So I'm playing a waiting game now. It seems like it should go away in time. Hopefully this is helpful.

same problem with me.. what should I do??

Yeah, I've had this problem too, it started like yesterday and that's why I looked it up. Terrible pain in the back of the head and neck. Its certainly to do with blood circulation because when I stand up too quickly after lying down, I experience a mild version (only after the full version has occurred a few minutes before).

My guess is this problem is linked to an unhealthy lifestyle. A few days ago there was a big festival where I live, and I got drunk, smoked and ate a lot of junk food like pizza and sweets. I think that smoking especially may be a cause of this, since I very rarely smoke at all, only sometimes at parties.
I have drank and eaten junk food on other occasions and felt fine. The condition may also be caused by lack of sleep.

Anyway, i'm still trying to investigate this problem, and i guess I'll try to eat less junk and certainly not smoke.

Guys so for my condition I had been diagnosed with blood clot in my brain. This condition is called venous sinus thrombosis and its very rare and serious condition. From last 5+ years I am on medication and also keep doing my MRI scans every year and other blood related tests to make sure everything is ok. I would suggest anyone having these kind of pain to start with a CT Scan of Brain and it will help identify if any problem of blood clots. Please consult a good neurologist and hematologist for the same. Let me know if you guys need any other info. Thanks,

I am so glad I found this forum to say the least, puts my mind ease. I usually never have issues with severe, pounding, throbbing pain the back of my head and neck before like my brain was seriously imploding and going to pop any minute during masterbation. It was almost like a veey intense cramping in my brain. I apparently made the mistake 5 minutes ago of masterbating with my vibrator in the shower (first time ever doing so). I was getting to into it and moving around a lot, moaning vigourously etc and all of the blood must have rushed to my head. The pain was so bad I was almost and tears and absolutely freaked out....I had to jump out of the shower and sit on my toilet for almost 5 minutes. Needless to say I was just at the peak of orgasm and had to stop. I had also just had a few beers and smokes before band so it could have also been due to not only strain but dehydration. Drinking water seemed to settle the pain a bit. But, I was honestly scared I had popped a vessel and maybe my brain was bleeding. I am much more relieved to find I am not the only one. Had to try and look ot up immediately. I hope this also is a help (and maybe a similar issue) to someone else to put their BRAINS at ease.

Apologize for some of those typos. Via phone.

UPDATE: Do without doing anything else, this condition went away after about a week and a half. But now when I workout with my trainer, I don't let him stretch my neck. I gently stretch it myself and also I make sure that whenever I'm doing reps with heavier weights, my neck is not scrunched up but rather straight and relaxed.

This problem just started about a week ago. at first, i wasnt sure if it was because of masturbation, but because of overthinking ( ps. iit started 2 days after my HUGE chess competition which i had to play 12 games straight) so i thought it was due to the over set of thinking from that day, but i realised, it only occured when i masturbated. im not really sure what to do at all. the pain starts when im about 10 seconds into it. its really annoying and it kill for like 20 mins and it has probably been the worst feeling i have experienced in my life. I dunno what to do, for now, im hoping a few days off should ease it up.

thank god..!!iam not the only one..!!i am suffering from this problem which has started last month only....but as u all say..it will go with time...so iam relieved..!!its good...we should open up with our problems ..and discuss....half problem gets already solved ..!!

yea same story here.... when i was younger about 14/15 i started having this ....  and it dissapeared after a while... recently well about 40 mins ago it happend again so i looked it up and found this page, thank you a lot for starting this topic. I remember i was staying up all night playing video games watching porn jerking off drinking cola and eating junk food.  it didnt botherd me back then. So years later im 23 now btw.. i got really  turned on so i started jerking off(40 mins ago) .. i always rush it when i jerk off holding my breath b4 i cumm curling up my neck... well my entire body seems to be in exstacy pulling all muscle togheter and it normally doesnt cause any pain so why does it now?  i think its probably the bad lifestyle ive been living again lately... eating junk food and drinking lots of beer having little to no sleep. i should probably start working out again sleeping properly and try and cook dinner.. if good health equals good sex or masturbation ive been living the wrong lifestyle...  my quickest way to get rid of the pain right now was taking 3 shots of tequilla.Guess I will start working on better lifestyle after I wake up, Love you guys thnx for sharing! byee

I thoght I was going to die too hahaha!
