Need evaluation: You need to see your fp to find out what are the causes of your headache - allergies, sinus, hormone, musculoskeletal, tension, stress etc- in order to be treated appropriately.

Blood Pressure: Most common cause of headache is high blood pressure, so check it at one of the stores.
Otherwise it could be due to migraines or stress besides some other uncommon causes.

Needs attention: Headaches are a common but often benign problem. However, persistant symptoms do require evaluation. This is especially so when the problem is of recent onset, represents a change from a usual pattern or is associated with other symptoms like blurred vision or disruption of sleep. You should discuss the problem and its history with your doctor to determine what tests and treatment are needed.
