Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
Either you are just faking the head discomfort or the head discomfort may be due to something else.
It's got nothing to do with the x-ray.
People go through multiple tests like that.
If you come in contact with x-rays for a long duration (years) then you will get cancer.
Best regards.
