Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Most likely, in your case, the headaches could be related to a "hang-over". So, there is no need to worry.
In migraine, headaches may get triggered by fasting, exposure to sunlight and noise. There may be vomiting.
If your symptoms persist, you should consult a Neurologist and get a brain scan done.
Best wishes,
