Hello and thanks for using HealthcareMagic.

I have read your question and understand your concerns.

I examined the picture you uploaded too.

An infection that may affect the scalp and nerves of the area included should be considered in your case.

Tinea capitis, shingles, etc. are conditions to consider.

However, getting evaluated by your primary care Doctor or a Dermatologist is necessary to understand better your condition and to start a treatment.

Hope this helps.

Take care.
