Get examined and investigated by a neurologist

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concern.
The headache may be chronic tension type headache.
Is there any vomiting, nausea, sensitivity to light or sound?
Any sleep disturbances?
Any stress?
Any other medical illness like diabetes, hypothyroidism or hypertension?
You need to get examined by a neurologist.
Blood investigations like thyroid profile, blood sugar, vitamin D and vitamin B 12 should be done along with renal function test.
Brain imaging may be required if clinical examination by a neurologist is abnormal.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
