Headache you have described could be due to nature of your work,if you are using the computer for a longer duration, dehydration ,lack of sleep ,eyes ,more important vascular headaches like migraine , tension headache or a cluster headache.Gastric issues are associated with headache too.However ,as you have been having this type of headache for a month, needs to be evaluated by a neurologist in your area to determine the exact cause of the headache and treat accordingly.
