Sons headache

My son had his Pfizer jab at school last week (Wed)
He complained to me yesterday he had a headache and I didn't think much of it. If he's in pain he usually moans non-stop so because he didn't I forgot bout it quickly.
Now he's told me his head hurts when he bends down and I asked how long he's had this headache. He said two days.
He's taken a paracetamol just now but could this be linked to the jab? Or purely coincidence given the timing?

I suppose I'm worrying because I know jabs and headaches can be linked but not fully sure of what it is. Should I consult a doctor?

Just looking for people who maybe had same experience and got some advice.

My DC had theirs on Saturday and was warned about a headache and aches as possible side effects. The vaccinator advised paracetamol.

Ok so might be a side effect that's came on a little later? I'm hoping so and nothing sinister
