I gotta go along here. I've had xray's and mri's for head/spine related issues off and on for years. Hold out for the mri. The big thing I learned with my mri was that one of the cartilage disks in my spine is a wedge instead of a disk. Never showed that on the xrays. The xrays do show my arthritis, but arthritis hasn't ever thrown the kinds of symptoms you're talking about in my path. I've got the neck pain and the crackly noises, but it's been moping along for years and it doesn't spasm or cause headaches. I've got other reasons for headaches, but not arthritis.
Get someone to look at the soft tissue. And if it were me, I'd probably not do the excercises until I got looked at. If it's soft tissue damage that's causing the headaches, exercise could be compoundin the damage.
So sez Dr. HK. Not the "Doctor" kind of "Dr.".... unless it's Dr. Hogly Wogly time...
