Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Money is not the most important to us on HCM, rather, your health is.With or without money, we will always attend to you.
There are many medical conditions that may cause the pain you are feeling.Some of them include:
-Common skin disorders like dermatitis
-Scalp infections by fungi or bacteria
-Infestation by lice
-Tension headache causes very sensitive scalp but less common in your case
-Temporal arteritis (inflammed blood vessels)
-UV radiation
-Heat/cold
With all these possible causes, i will suggest you see a Doctor for examination.Treatment varies depending on the cause and intensity of your symptoms.Treatment options may include special shampoos, pain medications, and special hair oils.If a dermatological cause, your Doctor may also send you to a Dermatologist.
Hope my answer will help you
Best regards
