Hello and welcome
I appreciate your concern
The cause of the headache needs to be determined. If its a worsening headache with focal neurological deficit and hypertension then brain imaging / CT Scan can be advised to rule out a subarachnoid bleed. If the CT is unremarkable then NSAIDs / acetaminophen should suffice.
For the time being ibuprofen with betahistine can be taken for symptomatic relief.
Let me know if you have any query
Wishing you best of health
