सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
In Japanese business culture, showing that you are '{頭|あたま}を{悩|なや}ませている' can be a way to demonstrate 'sincerity' ({誠実|せいじつ}). It shows you aren't taking the client's problem lightly. While Japanese values the 'process' of worrying, some Western business cultures might prefer 'problem-solving' language like 'brainstorming' which sounds more active and less 'pained'. In Japanese universities, this phrase is often used by professors to describe 'unsolved mysteries' in science, making the problem sound like a living opponent.
Use with 'ni'
Always remember the particle 'ni' for the cause. It's the most natural way to link the problem to the phrase.
Not for small things
Don't use it for 'what should I wear today?' unless you are a fashion model at a major show!
