Small pain in back of head, brain tumor?
Question:
Answers:
It is probably a migraine. See your doctor, he will do a blood workup and probably get an MRI. This will rule out anything that may be causing this trouble.

*lol* No brain tumor and a whole lot of paranoia.
If you had a brain tumor, you would have other neurological symptoms like memory problems, vision problems, balance, tremors, the list goes on. Trust me, a brain tumor is a whole lot more than just one spot of pain.
This is not a sign of a brain tumor. Relax! it may just be a spasm in one of the muscles on your scalp. This is something that may bother you several times a day for a while then just quit. Heat to the area might help, and strange as it sounds, cold may help instead. Try one, then the other and see which is better.
Headache is the #1 symptom of a brain tumor, BUT most headaches are not the result of a brain tumor. Since it is at the back of your head, is could be from tension in your neck. Some brain tumors cause no symptoms at all until they are quite large, especially if they grow slowly.
The only way to rule out a brain tumor is by a CAT scan or MRI of your head. If you're "really scared", see your doctor.
