Unless you had surgery within the past week, I'd go to the oral surgeon. You shouldn't have any sort of "pain" after a couple of weeks. I realize pain is very subjective, and degrees of discomfort linger for a long time after these surgeries, but if it is bothering you then you should be examined.

The headaches are likely temporary and very well could be radiating from your TMJ's. Jaw surgery absolutely stresses your TMJ joints. Where specifically is the headache pain?
