It is very common to see small lymph node in the occipital area because of scalp infections which are very common. If it is asymptomatic no further treatment is required. It is unlikely to be related with headache or neck pain
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
