What Causes Severe Headaches Near The Right Temple?

I get very painful headaches in the same part of my head almost everyday. They are near my right temple and I can t get the thought out of my head that I could have a brain tumor. I am probably just overreacting, but I don t know why I constantly get these headaches. It hurts to look at light and sometimes I cannot move or speak from the pain.

Where as headache due to brain tumour are associated with projectile vomiting which i suppose you don't have.
