Hello, thank you for consulting with healthcaremagic.
As you are mentioning that you have broken tooth, this headache can be because of this problem because tooth pain is radiating in nature and also sharp.
First thing you should do you get the treatment done of the infected tooth for which you have to visit a dentist he will take an x-ray diagnose the condition of the infection and will give you the appropriate treatment.
Hope it will help you.

Hello, You can take paracetamol 650 Mg thrice daily and consult your dentist at the earliest. The painkillers are for symptomatic relief, not treatment. Radiating pain from tooth indicates that either the tooth is for root canal treatment or extraction, therefore consult you dentist at the earliest
