Wheni had an migrane attack why do my legs and hands felt numb?

Complicated migraine: Complicated migraines are headaches which include as part of their picture numbness and sometimes tingling in the extremities, the mouth, the nose, and the tongue. I would recommend you see a neurologist about these headaches since they are potentially concerning in terms of future risk factors for other conditions.
