Q: Sinuses clicking after migraine ?

After the worst migraine of my life (hours of vomiting, sweating, and shaking and intense sensitivity to light), just as I was coming out of it I noticed a clicking noise in my face that would occur when I moved my eyes or talked. It was so loud that my boyfriend asked me why I was making that clicking noise with my mouth! I also see flickering lights daily and have had almost a constant headache since that "grand" migraine. The clicking still happens on and off, it's very bizarre.

The clicking sound you describe may be fluid in your sinuses. This may have also caused your headache. If this is still occurring you should get it checked out by your primary care doctor. They may do an examination or xray of the area.
