Headaches: It depends. Any head injury? Associated with nausea or vomiting or blurry vision? Any tingling or numbness? Any vertigo or gait imbalance? Weakness of any extremity? Any tearing of eye or photosensitivity? If answer to all are no then mostly no need to worry. If it still continues despite trial of Acetaminophen or yes to any, please get evaluated.

Many headache causes: There are many things that could be causing worsening headaches, some of which are quite serious. Allergy can sometimes contribute to headaches by blocking sinuses. But it would be unwise to assume that allergy is the cause. See a healthcare provider for a careful history and exam to begin figuring out the cause.
