Hi, just a quick question, back of your neck top of spine like near skull should there be a hard bump, is this a part of my spine? its not near the surface i have to push my finger in a bit to feel it, no pain from it either, does anyone else have this?

Maybe it is the odontoid process you are feeling (It is like a bony knob at the top of your spine) Everyone has one and it helps with rotation.

i think you could be right, it doesnt cause me any discomfort to touch although now ive be prodding and poking my neck is aching! they say if you had something to really worry about you would be completely aware of it, am i right? im trying to stop thinking like this

Prodding and poking will make it ache :) I am sure you are fine.
