Blotchy Red Rash And Itching After Migraine Attack. What Could This Be?

Usually, 24 hours After a migraine attack, a blotchy red rash covers most of my body. After it fades in two or three days (without treatment) the intolerable itch begins. This lasts a few days before disappearing. What is it and could I prevent its onset? YYYY@YYYY

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

This may be part of your migraine post drome.

Migraine postdrome are the symptoms that are experienced after a migraine attack has resolved.
They vary from one person to the next but normally consist of soreness, tiredness, mood changes, weakness, thinking difficulties, gastrointestinal difficulties but in your case, the rash may be part of your post drome.

There is no specific treatment.

I hope this helps
