HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
With a temperature of over 100, his headache is not likely related to migraines but more likely due to an infection.
It is possible that it may be a common viral infection like the common cold or flu especially if he has other symptoms but it may also be due to more serious infections.
It would be best to take him to his doctor for assessment.
I hope this helps
