Headaches on the top of your head can be annoying, to say the least and it can happen due to causes, including stress, dehydration, poor posture, or any underlying medical conditions. Stress often triggers muscle tension in the head and neck region, which can be painful. As a result of dehydration, blood flow and oxygen are reduced to the brain, causing pain. Poor posture, especially during prolonged activities, strains neck and scalp muscles, resulting in headaches.
