Hello dear,
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com. I understand your concern. The history you are giving is very classical for 'post-traumatic headache'.It may also have some component of 'Tension type headache'.Drug of choice is 'amitriptyline'.You can start with 10 mg per at bedtime(under your physician's supervision).It will surely bring improvement.I hope this helps.
