Alright, why do you cry in the first place, sorry for asking this but it's somewhat relevant in the context of what you have asked?

Well, when you cry, if I am not wrong, the nervous system gets excited, may be the heart pumps more blood and there is increase in blood flow in the arteries and veins including those in the head and that's why you can feel the pulse in your head. I feel them even when I am just lying on my bed. So that's normal.

"What is the treatment to get rid of this headache"? Well, first the doctor has to know what is causing the headache. May be he will ask for CT scan of brain and para nasal sinuses. Could also ask you to perform certain other tests depending on the symptoms.

By the way, how severe is the headache? Is it a sharp or dull headache?

I don't think crying can't cause a headache. Do you want to know something else?

I have have always had a bad headache if I have been very upset and cried hard for a long time. It is normal for this to happen to me.

crying can cause headache. if your upset and you cry, your under stress and it could cause you a headache.
i was just talking about my son's dead beat dad and i had a headache.
i had migraine headaches for 10 years. my doctor prescribed imetrex and aspirin. i would lay in bed and curle in a ball and pray to God. i was sensitive to light, noise, movement on the bed, my head and eye was pounding.
years later when i was out of a relationship and unemployed my migraine headaches went away.
