Hi,
A headache is a common symptom and can be due to many causes.
If the head ache is increasing from a week then we need to do a clinical neurological examination and find out is there can be any condition in the brain which might be causing the problems.
Please discuss with your doctor and get a CT brain scan done if needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care

Dr Vivek Chail, Radiologist
