Hello,
The headache is probably related to the infection. I see through the query that you have already taken the treatment to treat the infection. I recommend to continue the treatment as prescribed by your doctor. To treat the headache,I suggest using Ibuprofen 600 mg three times a day.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
