Hello Mostly  a hole in ear drum won't be responsible for headache unless there is an infection. You are telling that his ear is dry so no chances of infection. You can take medicine for 2 3  days and check the status.if won't improve then physical Consultantation is must.
Next Steps
You can take ENT consultation
