    Just too many possibilities, from tension headache (the catchall diagnosis) to migraine to grinding teeth or any number of rarer things. Are you on any medications or supplements...
    Your best bet is to try the usual relaxation, an analgesic like Tylenol or ibuprofin, a warm tub, massage of neck and maybe soles of feet if you can afford it or have someone, and alternating hot and cold washcloth over your eyes as you lie on the couch.
    Maybe keep a diary of when it happens.
    See a doctor if it persists.
    Migraine sufferers avoid certain foods. You can find the list online.
