Pins and needles after migraine. is there any treatment for that?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Probably: This type of sensation may be a headache-induced neurologid deficit. There are many headache treatments. Team up with your doctor to find which works best for you. Also discuss preventive therapies as well.

Migraine phases: Migraine is not just headaches, as there are pro-dromal periods of malaise prior to the pain, and about 24 hrs of post-dromal symptoms, which could include paresthesias, such as pins and needles. Best approaches are to stop headache asap with a triptan or prevent the headache period. Work with a headache specialist.
