Brief Answer:
Do not expose to cold breeze.
Detailed Answer:
Hello again,
Thanks for considering my answer and for your follow up.
Head-ache during winter could be due to change in barometric pressure, congestion of nasal tissue and constriction of blood vessels in brain.
As such, these head-aches are short lived, you can avoid by protecting your head and neck with hat and scarf. If it is associated with running nose or nasal obstruction, you need to see an ent surgeon who can prescribe you nasal decongestants and anti histamines or any other medication.
Hope, I have answered your query.
Take care.
