Headaches right side
Have been experiencing on off headaches for the last 3 months. I have been to every doctor from neurologist to orthopaedic and even psychiatrist.
CT brain and MRi brain and cervical are all clear. The pain originates from the back of the head and goes on to forehead and eye brows only on the right side. No other symptom. Sleep is disturbed on most nights.
Are these tension headaches? How long will these last.

It can be due to psychological issues or physiological issues. Differential diagnosis is required and important. As you mentioned about tension, are you currently facing any situation like this? Please discuss this with your doctor.
Visiting a psychologist or psychiatrist again is required with the history.
Next Steps
Please notice the event (if any) which triggers your headache and share with the healthcare provider.

You must visit the psychiatrist again with all your reports
Mood symptoms, sleep pattern, thought process during that period all need to be assessed before commenting on type of headache
Do not worry, you will be relieved once proper detailed assessment is done, it's a very common problem and symptom in mood and anxiety disorders

The answer depends on a lot of factors. First the doctor needs to isolate if it's psychological or psychological. That needs a thorough evaluation.
So youl benefit from consulting a physician and see. if there's nothing there the doctor would refer you to a psychologist/psychiatrist. Then we could narrow down the cause and work with it accordingly.

consult your physician

A detailed evaluation will be helpful to make a diagnosis. A migraine headache or tension type headache are possible. Sleep disturbance can also contribute to worsening of these headaches. May require short term treatment.
