The brain does not have pain receptors like other parts of the body, though the vascular system that is composed of the veins and arteries that supply blood to the brain do, in fact, have pressure and pain receptors as anyone who has had a migraine headache will tell you. The other thing that often causes pain that feels like it's inside the head is actually from the muscles that hold it up, namely in the neck. Pain can be diffuse and difficult to locate, but here are a few guidelines that may help. If it is on one side of the head and is sharp and throbbing, it is more likely to be vascular in origin. If it is more diffuse and constant and you feel it on both sides of the head, more or less equally, then it's more likely to be caused by muscles in spasm. If it continues and you a still concerned a trip to the doctor or ER might be a good idea, especially if it is accompanied by a fever or loss of coordination.
