Hi,
Based on details you seems to suffer from post traumatic headache.
You need to undergo EEG to rule out seizure phenomenon (type of fit without loss of consciousness or abnormal movement)
Sodium valproate is the best drug in such a case.Please consult nearby neurologist for evalution and prescription
