I had a muscle strain that caused me pain whenever I tilted my head back even the slightest bit. It was caused by moving my neck while lifting free wights. It hurt so badly I went to see a chiropractor. This did not help with pain much, but it did make me feel better mentally since I was trying to do something about it. Within a few months the pain dissipated and now, years later, it is completely gone. This is only one cause, just know that it may not be anything serious.
