Hi there,
thank you for choosing HCM
as from your history I can think of more than one type of headache.

most probably the headache you are feeling with physical activity is exertional headache, which can occur with exercise ,weight lifting ,coughing and during sexual intercourse, they generally do not have underlying problem, but if they keep on coming again and again you may need to visit a doctor to rule out other cause by having MRI done.
If MRI is normal then it will be classified as primary headache and you can take indomethacin tablets for its treatment.
I hope my answer is helpful for you
please feel free to ask further questions if you like.

kind regards
dr Fouzia
