“Asking for daughter?”
I am asking for a 14 year old female with pressure like headaches, the headaches are the worst in early morning and at late night. The headaches are located above and around the temple area of the head on both sides, she has been a little off balance lately for example wobbling a little, she is also a bit sensitive to light and is easily agitated she is currently on no medication.

Pressure headache in the temples can be a simple headache, migraine, temporomandibular joint (TM) problem, and a more serious condition such as Temporal Arteritis. Please, take your daughter for medical help right away. It could be more serious and a complete evaluation with imaging may be needed. Thank you.
Hello,
She needs to be seen as soon as possible and potentially needs a CT scan. Those are not normal headache symptoms especially with the loss of balance. Please take her in to her Pediatrician or ER as soon as possible. Thank you! Please let me know how she is doing. Best regards!

Child needs to have a checkup. Can't answer it without that. Sounds like allergic or pressure headaches but without a good exam and possibly MRI can't give a diagnosis. Should see your doctor right away.
Headaches can occur for a variety of reasons. If they are associated with other symptoms such as balance issues, this is more concerning. Make an appointment with her physician for a complete neurological exam to evaluate the cause of the headaches.
