hi! its hard to identify what type headache you had right now, because we need to consider the the following: is it acute, or chronic? are there factors or precipitating factors that triggers your headache? is there a prodomal symptoms? specifically can you point the location of your headache? is its unilateral (one side off your head) or bilateral? could you describe the characteristic of your headache, is it throbbing, dull, stabbing, squeezing? because treatment will vary depending on the cause. an NSAIDs drug will do however, if the headache is persistent and severe you need to consult a neurologist for further work-up.
