Elevated blood pressure, mixed with perhaps muscle tension from the build up???...could be...

Rae Ven Rae,

It also could have been a very intense partial orgasm. Very similar to full out orgasms but their end result is not quite as enjoyable as the real deal. One big hint would be a lack of the exhaustion that usually follows a real orgasm.
As for alleviation, do you do (or know of) the trick of massaging the muscle between the index finger and thumb?


Partial < real (easy math),

I actually applied pressure to the back of my head and pressed and alleviated some of the pain if not all...

I dunno--I am always energized after orgasm--just sated...like a happy, powerful, jelly in the limbs feeling...don't know if that is normal or no...

Rae Ven Rae,

That, as far as I know, is rather common. Did you have this same sated feeling after the headache inducing orgasm? Or was your head pounding too hard for you to notice?
Be careful with pressure to the base of the skull.


An orgasm organism would be groovy,

LOL orgasm organism...

well--yes and no--I did, but the headache made me tense up it was so bad (like a migraine--), so I didn't enjoy the warmth of my usual stupor

why must I be careful of pressure to the base of the skull?

Rae Ven Rae,

Excessive pressure to the region between the base of the skull and the C1 vertebrae can cause paralysis and death. This is especially true of blunt force trauma but heavy, extended pressure can also be detrimental. Pressure to the muscles in that region, longus colli and longus capitis, is safer but they can be fragile and susceptible to bruising and tearing without much force.


I love anatomy,

Rae Ven Rae,

Depends on how hard your massage was. Some people can withstand quite a bit of pressure on the muscles, usually through conditioning. However, those muscles are decently weak (pressure wise) when compared to larger muscles like the quadriceps.
If you did not feel any shooting and/or lingering pain then you did no damage.


"Pressure sensitive nerve area" (one of the greatest phrases ever),

Rae Ven Rae,

Where were you rubbing? Was it on the skull or was it just beneath the base where the vertebrae meet?


Had one too many strikes to nerve centers,

well let me see if I can describe it -- like, the bump that lies at the base of the skull on other side of the neck--not on the neck per se, doh--I am not explaining it right...

Mine is quite pronounced,

Rae Ven Rae,

That is considerably safer than the occipital/C1 junction. It usually takes a decent amount of blunt trauma there to cause any real damage. At most, if you applied too much static pressure, you would have a skin bruise. There are some minor nerves there that may have been compressed but some ice should help. In general...avoid getting hit in the head.


Skulls sound interesting when struck,

Yeah--that whole getting hit in the head thing sounds like it would suck...

I recall seeing a you tube video where a guy got struck in the head with a bottle ( a singer on stage) and everyone was laughing--I was like, DUDE--they could have killed that man--idiots..

people don't think about how fragile we truly are in that regard...

Rae Ven Rae,

True enough. I often caution people about rubbing their (or others) temples for similar reasons to those of the occipital/C1 junction. There is a reason that most immediate reactions to danger involve covering the head.
