Many things: These symptoms can only be adequately diagnosed only after a thorough evaluation by your doctor. This may include labs and other satudies. Once all of the information is in, your doctor can let you know what's going on, and what to do to help you.

See below: Headaches that have 'area pain' that moves around from place to place might actually be pain from the muscles that move the lower jaw. There are many of them and if they are in 'spasm', they will hurt. Many things can cause them to be spasmotic. Consulting with a dentist trained in TMJ diagnosis and treatment may be helpful.

Multiple Headache : Variable location headaches should be looked at by a number of specialists in headache care including your TMJ dentist who is neuromuscular and myofascial trigger point trained in travell techniques. We see many headaches from cervical and dental origin that need therapy to be eliminated.
