Hi.... by what you say I feel that your daughter might be having a migraine without an aura. If there is a family history of migraine it becomes all the more relevant and important corroborative evidence for this diagnosis. As of now you can give her only pain reliever or Paracetamol at the appropriate dose when there is headache.

But if there is any double vision or vomiting 15 to 20 times per day associated with severe headache, or altered sensorium or seizures then you need to rush her to the nearest Emergency Room.
