Hi,

How are you?
What is the character of this headache? Is it a sharp, stabbing type or is it a throbbing one?
There is a possibility that this is a migraine headache. Migraine headaches are frequently accompanied by numbness.
At the same time a growth in the brain can also not be ruled out.
I would suggest you to schedule an appointment with a neurologist and undergo a complete neurological evaluation and tests like CT scan or MRI of brain.
