I know the answer to this question.
First of all, you shouldn't listen to music with headphones, it really is bad for you. I hate that I have to tell you that, because I love to listen to music and I know how much you probably do, but headphones are proven to make peoples ears in pain for a number of reasons.
^ NOT THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION
This is the answer... You need to see a chiropractor. Go out and get a good posturepedic pillow. The kind that look like a kidney bean are the best. When you sleep, sleep with your back straight like you would when you sit with good posture. I know for a fact that the pain you are having is because you need an adjustment. If you have already seen a chiropractor it's possible that you were adjusted wrong.
I am certain this will help solve your headache issue.

hi
headaches can have lots and lots of reasons but i believe they should not be ignored. you are old enough to arrange an appointment with the doctor yourself so make sure you do this, hopefully he can reassure you that your headache has a harmless cause. your mother should not be dismissing this, assuming she is not a doctor herself?
