I don't enjoy suffering a headache or think it's virtuous, but I was always taught that pain is your body sending a message. Usually, unless it's a proper migraine, I can figure out what the cause is and address it. Muscle tension, dehydration, low electrolytes, etc.

If it remains a puzzle, I'm not opposed to OTC analgesics. I just like to try to troubleshoot first (:
