Brief Answer:
Possible migraine.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thank you for using HCM to post your question

I read carefully your question and I understand your concern.

The type of pain you are describing seems like a migraine.
She will need to use those medicines which are called Triptanes (sumatriptane 100 mg or Rizatriptane 8 mg) the moment that she notices the pain its starting.
Also, she needs rest and quiet.
It is a very bad pain, but once she will use medicine before getting bad, she will be able to control it.

If the pain its continuous, doesn't stop for more then one week, if it is a new headache that she hadn't had before...then we would think of serious things. But I don't think that is the case because she is young age.

These are my thoughts with the information you gave me.
Let me know if you need more clarifications

Regards,
Dr.Papaqako
