I think that these are "exertional headaches"!. It is essentially the dialation of the blood vessels within your brain!. !. If this continues,than perhaps you should talk to your physician about it!. If you are taking any new medications, this may be the underlying factor!. Alcohol, caffeine, nicotine and drugs can lead to headaches as well!.Things to watch out for would be a headache that gets worse over a few days, a stiff neck, weight loss and neurological problems (hearing, seeing!.!.!.!.) Also, if the headache is always on one side, you should go in to see your doctor as soon as possible!. Hope this helps some,,,Www@Answer-Health@Com
