Brief Answer:
Best would be get a CT Scan to rule out any tumor.

Detailed Answer:
Hi I am Dr Gopal Goel Orthopedic Surgeon.
In my opinion there are multiple causes of headache even if it is arising from the same spot. There could be a triggering factor like muscle spasm or may be a migraine.
Yes all these thing can happen in both tumors(large ) and again without tumors also.
I would recommend you get a CT scan of head of to rule out any tumor ,though at your age I would not suspect it. Take opinion from a neurologist also.
Thanx for the question . Please feel free to ask any other question.
