Hi Dear ,

Welcome to Health Care Magic Team.

Understanding your concern.

Headaches along with numbness in tongue, face, vision problems as per your query is probably due to migraine ,the condition is known as sensory aura .There are many trigger factors in case of migraine ,but in your case it stress seams to be the factor which causing problems.

It is best to avoid trigger factors in case of migraine .It is also good to go for yoga and meditation which are extremely helpful in migraine .You can also take some medcines for migraine like amitriptyline ,propanolol ans vasograin .Try to avoid loud sound ,bright light and congested area.

You may also start multivitamin supplements .Get adequate sleep ,do exercise ans relax yourself .If the condition still persists ,you should consult doctor ,who can diagnose by taking history of symptoms or may order for tests like CT scan and MRI.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
