Hello dear,

The symptoms as mentioned in your post can be due to:
1. Sinusitis
2. Tension headache
3. Migraine
4. Cluster headache

Paracetamol (500 mg to be taken thrice a day) can be taken for symptomatic relief

So, kindly consult your General Physician & start treatment.
Investigations like complete blood count & X ray of para-nasal sinus will be helpful.

Wishing you a good health.
