Please seek a follow up with your primary or urgent care ASAP to rule out serious complications. If medically clear, you may be experiencing a migraine or facial pain headache. A dentist trained in Airway and Temporal Mandibular Dysfunction may be able to help you with occlusal splint therapy. https://health.clevelandclinic.org/your-jaw-may-be-to-blame-for-your-migraine-headaches/ Take care!

Possible migraine variant, but the chronic daily emerging pattern might suggest use of analgesics which may prolong and intensify issues. Better ways to deal with this, but should uncover any other triggers, such as focal TMJ, Occipital Neuralgia, sinus issues, etc. See a neurologist and perhaps a dentist.
