Yes, a headache anywhere can be a sign of a brain tumor, however that is extremely rare. Most often headaches at the back of the head are either tension headaches, Migraine, or occipital neuralgia. There are many more types of headache though, and many of them include pain at the back of the head. If you have a new type of headache or a severe headache, this is reason to seek the help of a qualified physician, especially a Headache Specialist.
