Hi, thank you for writing to Healthcare Magic.
Well, it is less possible that the headache could have resulted directly from the tattoo. May be it could have been as a result of anxiety, stress or some other thing. In my opinion, I would suggest you take some pain killers like acetaminophen and if it does not work, then you see a doctor.
I hope I have answered your query
I wish you good health
