What does it mean when there is pain on the right side of your head?

What's going on when you have pain (but not quite a headache that you're aware of) on the right side of your head towards the top? It happened yesterday and again today it and it comes and goes. How concerned should I be about this?

Hi! I am 10 years old and I have been having a dull (and sometimes throbbing) headache on the top right side of my head for about 3 days now. It happens every now and then. I've been taking medicine but it only lasts for a while then it comes back. I've been coughing at night for a while too. Could that be the cause of it?
