Hi...i understand your concern.
Regular headaches as in your case would need a complete physical evaluation.It would help if you could tell me whether you have a family history of migraine or hypertension.
To start with please visit an ophthalmologist and get your eyes examined.
Please also get your blood pressure checked.
It is also advisable to consult a neurologist who may advise you to get a head ct/mri done.
Depending on the cause of the headache you may need to take prophylactic medication to prevent the recurring attacks.
Hope this helps.
