Unclear what relationship your headaches have with the injury to the head but there is a very REAL and recognized type of headache by the name of COITAL HEADACHE and it comes on during sexual activities, mainly intercourse or masturbation and almost always just before or at the point of orgasm. It is treatable and part of a complex of headaches classified as Trigeminal Autonomic Cephalgias. A headache specialist will know how to treat these headaches.
