What Causes Intermittent Headache?

Hello, I have a headache for the past three weeks(it comes and goes during the day) and i went to the hospital and took a CT scan and they said it came back negative for brain tumor or injuries. Yesterday, I drank 1.5 beers and my head started hurting. What could this be?

Hi
Welcome to Health care magic.

I went through the history you have provided here. It seems from the history that you are having intermittent headache. Since CT scan is normal it rules out neurological and intracranial causes of headache.
The other causes that need to be considered are sinus related problems, refractive errors and other eye related problems and primary headaches like migraine.
Do consult your doctor for examination to confirm the diagnosis and prescription of drugs.

Hope this is helpful to you.
