Need more info: If this happens commonly and typically passes on it's own or with OTC analgesics after several hours, then the description suggests migraine headache. With this info though, could also be an eye problem (potentially serious especially with a red eye) or left-sided sinus issues. Recurrent headaches and eye issues generally need an in-person exam or at least a longer conversation with a doc.
