Posted on Wed, 14 Jun 2017
Question: I have been noticing a tenderness feels like below my scalp on the left front side of my head, near where my hair parts. I notice it most in the shower. No problem noticed on my scalp. Any suggestion on what this could be? Thanks

Brief Answer:
This doesn’t seem concerning to me!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this pain that you have reported. I have reviewed the details fully and there seems to be nothing of concern at this time. This to me is more of an incidental and transient observation and would resolve spontaneously. I will recommend that you massage this gently daily and observe how it unfolds.

Keep me updated with progress. If there are any changes like swelling or local changes such as rash/color, kindly update me on this. I wish you well.
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
