Dear Ms
If the pain has been of short duration then it's likely to be tension headache. Tension headache usually presents with temporal pain and neck pain.
I would suggest you the following
1. Analgesic like Ibuprofen
2. Adequate rest and sleep : Ensuring 6 to 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep will be beneficial
3. Consume your meals on time
Do get back to me if you need any further assistance
Wishing you and your family a very happy and healthy life
take care
