In some cases, some warning symptoms
may be experienced before the onset of headache or with the headache, known as
an ‘aura.’ The symptoms of aura may be related to vision like flashes of
light or spots or different shapes before eyes and sometimes temporary
loss of vision. Other symptoms of aura may relate to sensation. It
includes tingling or prickling sensation on face, arms or legs. Sometimes
difficulty in speech may also be a symptom.
