Hello Dear,
While riding a roller coaster may be great fun, it apparently can increase your risk of developing blood clots on the brain.
What is your age?Do you have any other health problems?
The headaches may have been caused by the up-and-down, back-and-forth motions of the roller coaster or the acceleration force may have been strong. You can take some NSAID to relieve the pain and be cautious next time.The pain will subside on its own.
