Yes. A sinus headache can occur at the same time as a tension headache, and both can occur at the same times as migraines. When trying to make a diagnosis, doctors will look at the location and quality (ie: pressure, throbbing, dull ache) of the pain, as well as other symptoms you have (like having a cold recently, being under a lot of stress, or having muscle issues in the back and neck).
