It shouldn't.

If it's a bad headache - a painful, incapacitating one, then you should call an ambulance. You could be having an aneurysm.

No, seriously. Call 911.

Okay don't call 911 yet this guy is right but thts worst case scenario. If you've been coughing for about a day you'll probably develop a headache.

I typically get head, neck, and shoulder aches from the repeated tensing of those muscles when coughing repeatedly. The sinus pressure and pain that may accompany the cough may have something to do with it, too.

Cough is a reflex to expel the mucous from the respiratory tract and this reflux occurs with an immense speed. This speed causes a jerk right from the neck to the head region of the body. Neck supplies NERVES to the head region and due to repetitive attacks of the cough it leads to a lot of pain in head region.

How many sentences can you make with the word head?

There are infinite potential sentences that can be created with the word head. Here is a short example. Person one: "My head hurts." Person two: "My head hurts too." Person three: "My head hurts more." Person four: "She said her head hurt, yours hurts too, and his hurts more." Each person can just add a word, or change a word to any current sentence and that will create a new sentence.
