Can you get headaches after smoking?
15 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Smoking reduces the oxygenation in your blood, constricts blood vessels, and raises blood pressure - all factors that can cause a headache. Quit smoking.

Yes: Inhaling carbon monoxide, particulate pollutants & nicotine (smoking) will certainly cause a headache. Particularly when you first start. Your body is telling you this activity is bad- stop. Listen to your body.
