Can running in cold weather trigger a migraine like headache? I know this sounds really stupid but I went to the track tonight and walked/jogged a mile. It's the first time I've done any type of running in I don't remember how long. I was dressed warm because it was about 20-25 degrees outside. When I finished and got back into my car my chest and ears started burning and my glasses fogged up. A few minutes later my head started hurting. On the drive home I had a little trouble breathing and the headache started getting worse. When I got home I crawled into a hot bath which seemed to help a little. Afterwards I just layed on the couch and read for a couple hours. As I laid there my headache kept getting worse and the other symptoms of a migraine start popping up (sensitivity to light, nausea, severe pain) and my chest started feeling tight again. I just wanted to know if this is normal. It's been awhile since I've pushed myself like I did tonight (especially in cold weather) and I'm just wondering how to make it go away.
