Muscles get knots called trigger points. These make the muscles tight causing them to press on nerves and other thing.
Pain can be referred from places other than the head.
#1 The first thing is to take a couple swigs of molasses or eat a couple of bananas. They contain magnisium and potassium both of which muscles need.
#2 WATER she should be drinking 1/2 gallon minimum. The head of neurology at UCDavis likens a body running low on water to a car running low on oil (the engine can seize).
Get a good (deep tissue) massage (to loosen the trigger points) on the back, shoulders and neck. Make sure to press up at the base of the skull where it meets the spine.
You rub or lightly scratch everywhere on your head. You will hit spots that are tender these are trigger points. The idea is to rub across them 6-12 times per session up to six times per day until they go away.
For more information on trigger points read The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies.

See a Dr. just to make sure all is ok.
Neuromuscular massage therapy will benefit you greatly. Even if you go there first, they should check you out to make sure massage is safe. If they aren't sure they will send you to a Dr. first.
Most of that pain can come from the various muscles of the neck, head, jaw and other areas. The problems could be related as well as stem from other imbalances in your structure.
This is my specialty. I am a neuromuscular therapist specializing in TMJ dysfunction & neck and shoulder injury.
A good Chiropractor can pop your neck, too. Much better and complete than you can do by yourself.
Combining therapy is a good idea. Chiro and massage complement eachother very well.

No medicine in the world can treat this problem, you will have to trust Alternate Systems of Medicine.
Acupuncture is the only treatment available, otherwise it will disappear automatically.
Some villagers drop some herbal drops in nostrils, enquire if possible. Drop two drops of drumstick leaves' juice in opposite nostril if half side painful and both if full headache.
