Hello there. I can understand your concern. Either you are just faking the head discomfort or the head discomfort may be due to something else. It's got nothing to do with the x-ray. People go through multiple tests like that. If you come in contact with x-rays for a long duration (years) then you will get cancer. Best regards.
