Hello!
Thank you for asking on HCM!
Your symptoms could be related to the local inflammation of the soft tissues surrounding the scalp. You should know that in this region nerves lie under the skin and the soreness is related to the nerve inflammation too.
it may take some weeks for the sensibility of this region to recover like before.
But, if this problem persists, I would recommend consulting with a neurologist for a careful physical exam.
Anyway your symptoms do not indicate any serious medical disorder. So, just relax and try to be patient.
Hope to have been helpful!
Take care, Dr. Aida
