Suggest Treatment For Compulsive Scalp Picking Behavior
Hi Dr. I recently started picking my scalp like an idiot but its because of my anxiety. I picked to hard and felt a sharp pain and it radiated into my teeth. No its sore to the touch and a little swollen. Should I worry as I am a tad bit of a hypochondriac. But maybe I just pinched a nerve. Reassure me? Thank you.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this is the psychological condition and you have to come out of this else this would create more panic and may be you would need psychiatric help try to control your thoughts, be positive, and practical, no need to worry about this, hope this helps take care and have a nice day.
