What are these symptoms?

Hi everyone

Since the start of June, I have been getting headaches on and off, with neck pain which can vary in intensity , also on and off. I went to the Doc who checked my eyes and referred me for an eye test. I went along and the optometrist did various tests and looked into the back of my eyes with a special machine, and said there was nothing sinister to see. The headache is not really a headache as such.. it is more like pains in my head It feels like a burning sensation in the back of my head and at the top of my neck and sometimes at the sides it can be painful too. So i went back to the doctor, who checked my eyes again and said it's muscoloskeletal and prescribed me 300mg asprin to take when I get the headache. Since then, the last few weeks i have had a few episodes of pins and needles in my hand, and ringing in my ear, along with a bit of crackling sound, a bit of wax and wet feeling in my left ear. Has anyone else had these symptoms?
