Thank you for choosing HCM
Based on your description, it seems that you have a migraine. A migraine is a recurrent type of headache that occurs due to several reasons or trigger factors. A few of the trigger factors are:
Cold
Fever
Sunlight
and even Exercise
Along with this, the numbness can be an aura symptom of the migraine. You can try taking Tablet Paracetamol 500 mg to see if it helps you recover. All the best. Follow up after 3 days.
Hope this helps you
