headache -
The brain itself is not sensitive to pain, because it lacks pain-sensitive nerve fibers. Several areas of the head can hurt, including a network of nerves which extends over the scalp and certain nerves in the face, mouth, and throat. The meninges and the blood vessels do have pain perception. Headache often results from traction to or irritation of the meninges and blood vessels. The muscles of the head may similarly be sensitive to pain.

If you do not have a brain disorder or infection, headaches are caused primarily due to a lack of nutrients in the body such as protein or potassium.
If you wear glasses and they are scratched, continuously squinting to focus could cause a headache as well.
when it is very hot outside, i usually get a headache.
I work during the evenings and dont use lights in my apartment.
The next time you have a headache your period could be coming in the next few days or eat a banana or eat some meat or beans.

A lil man gets a drill and drives it hard down the top of ur head, which makes the other lil man light the fires to burn ur eyes, which in turn makes the other guy squeeze the back of ur neck and ur temples - they do a thorough job for me, really regularly!

Headache is usually caused by dilated blood vessels in the skin around your head, the brain itself doesn't have pain receptors.

Most of the time it's your muscles in your neck, face, and shoulders that are pulled and/or strained that cause headaches. Sometimes clenching teeth can cause headaches too. Or there are chemical triggers that cause headaches like chocolate, peanuts, MSG, etc. It's a chemical reaction in the brain.
