sensitive scalp sore to touch

I noticed my ear started hurting yesterday afternoon. Today, I noticed my throat hurt and my scalp has become increasingly sensitive to touch. Did you see a doctor? Did you take anything or do anything to relieve your symptoms? Thanks!

I was told that since my hair is thick and heavy, it could make my scalp sore. But really, sometimes it hurt too much to even touch, let alone comb my hair. Imagine my depression when I realized that my scalp was still sore after I allowed my beautician to "scalp" me! It NEVER occurred to me that it could be a result of the MS, but that makes sense, now. On a more positive note, since I have alot of pain in my arms, short hair is much easier for me to manage.

@ 2wks ago i noticed an almost burning sensitivity on the left side of my forehead, running back to top of my scalp when i touch the area lightly or brush my hair. i take prozac, cymbalta lopressor neurontin. i have fibromyalgia and atypical rheumatoid arthritis.53yr old female.i had two concussions on the left side.

Does anybody else have a sore to touch stomach? Just at the bottom where the baby ls growing.

The lump is also asymptomatic it is just there. I have sensitive scalp for as long as i can remember. i have had no head trauma minus my sister banging my head by accident almost two months ago with her hatch back door . I did not have a concussion and i was fine just bit sore and it was more at the front of my head near my bangs . the lump is more to the top and back of my left side of my head . i asked my doctor she said not to worry about it .

I forgot to mention that I have had very sensitive eyes too! The sun doesn't even have to be out and my eyes will hurt randomly.

I have some pain on the crown of my head, it gets bad at times and it is sensitive to touch even when I lie down or anything touches it. I also have pain in the ear on the right side, it also affects my eyes, pressure behind them. I have some pulling feeling in my neck and right shoulder when I turn my head at times....I feel two to three small lumps or they are vessels that are swollen either way...its painful and annoying at the same time.

Just today I started having these sharp pains to right side back of head. When touching scalp where pain was coming from I found scalp to be really sore in that place. Feels like i hit my head on something but no bump or indention. Recently I dyed my hair 3 days ago. I've had a sore throat for two days and sneezing with runny nose today. The shooting pain is my most concern. Took an ibuprofen to see if that will help.

) I was wondering if any of you could suggest a shampoo that is easy on the scalp during tx? I have only been on tx for 2 weeks and my scalp is already very sore and flaky...

Have you noticed if the area of the scalp is sensitive to touch ? Does the pain increase on combing, etc ? You have to see a neurologist for this and consider the possibility of trigeminal neuralgia.

my chin right up to my top of my head is very sensitive and sore to touch. There are no signs of swelling or redding of the skin. I am just wondering if maybe there is something wrong up there or not. i have never experience this before and it's kinda worrying me..

Accompanying this symptom, was a localized area on my scalp, that was sensitive to the touch. Located on the top right side of my head, the area was about three inches in diameter. No pain, just sensitive when touched. Additionally, there was occasional tenderness felt from the inner ear area of my right ear. Again, mild and infrequent. Symptoms occurred on day one, but day two were hardly noticable. Reappeared on day three, four and five. No other cold or flu like symptoms to speak of.

For the last few days i have been experiencing if you could imagine where a hairband would lie on your head (directly in the middle) a sore burning/tight feeling of the scalp. Almost feels like my hair is being pulled its very sensitive- but very very sore and burning feeling. Does anyone have any ideas on what this is & what i can do??

I wear glasses and the area that is sore to the touch is right above where the ear piece rests and seems to be about a 2 x 1 inch area. It is sore to a gentle touch, but if i push hard on the same area, it doesn't hurt. Ideas?

I'm having the same problem only on the back of my legs...It doesn't hurt to walk...but very sore to the touch. I sit twelve hours every day I work and when I come home my legs are swollen. lately they ache or should I say sore to the touch.. When I'm off I don't have the problem...Sometimes I take off just to help my legs...by the way I'm a 61 year female......can someone help or tell me whats going on>???

I also have Graves Disease with hyperthyroidism, but my Optometrist says the migraines are not from the Graves. He recommends I see a neurologist. My head gets sore to the touch when I have them. It's like a dull pain that I get most every day. Has anybody else experienced this before? any suggestions?

and ever since that encounter it has been sensitive to the touch. nothing pain wise or anything just more sensitive. is there any stds that can lead to this?

While sleeping that pain got worse and so itchy and so become my hair, when I awoke the next day I noticed little red spots on the fontline of my scalp while brushing my hair it hurt terribly and sensitive to touch. The pain got worse to the point I couldn't wear certain clothes or use certain products on my skin cause they would burn. I have now I headfull of blistery sores also on the chest area still, my upper and lower back, the side of my face and my chin.

It feels like the actual temple vein is tender and it feels like my scalp is tender all over as well, the scalp and temple are sensitive to touch. Can some one help me to understand why this is happening.

my scalp is so tender to touch...and my temples hurt bad sometimes to...those veins orwhatever they are in ur temples hurt to..they stickout a little..and when i rub them..it hurts to..also i had an accident/injury back in sept... and my neck n back were in involved...my neckshurts just about everyday...and yes i have been to my dr...she said it was just tension... and gave me excercises to do...i was thinkin i hadsome nerve pain?, my left cheek hurts sometimes..its a weird kinda pain...

When touching a sensitive spot repeatedly, the pain will stop and may move to another part of my scalp, front, middle or rear, always on the right side. Ibuprofen definitely helps. This is only occasional, but am now having a longer spell (3 days). What could this be?

I use to have this with progressing scalp odor. The only thing that helped me was to begin using shampoos without sodium lauryl or laureth sulfate or ammonium lauryl or laureth sulfate. These chemicals give some sensitive scalp people 'scalp scurf'. Mild natural shampoos can be found at the health store or online.
