You have been diagnosed with a primary headache
It is natural for people with severe headaches to be concerned that they have a serious brain abnormality. However, research into such headaches shows they are almost never caused by serious problems. We now recognise that such headaches are from an overly active pain system, within a structurally normal brain. Most headaches affect the scalp, face and neck, rather than being restricted to the scalp and the pain can be dull, sharp, pressure like, etc.
