Sore Scalp, Feels Bruised

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Can I ask if anyone's scalp ever feels sore to touch, as if bruised but it's not. I keep getting patches on my head that are tender and if pressed feel as if should have bruising. it's never the same area, and I haven't bumped my head. I don't have a headache either. I take magnesium already to ward off migraine and drink loads of water and herbal tea daily. I'd really appreciate it if anyone has any ideas. Thanks for reading x

Central Nervous System issue, head and spine, I have pain from the top of my head to my feet. I use a heated bean bag and put it on top of my head to feel better. Heat seems to work better for me than the cold compresses available.

Yes scalp is sore every day to the touch. And when I get a migraine even worse. Also, skin very sensitive to the touch...feels like a sunburn et if you push on the muscles makes you want to scream. Over the last few yrs went from long hair to very short hair. Do not own any time of curling iron. I barrel brush bangs et take breaks blowing drying hair use I mouse lifter et then fluff hair with hands or pick after spray hair spray all over. Use to be a jean girl with nice tops et where shorts last 2 yr. all I wear are dresses so my skin doesn't hurt. Welcome to the wonderful world of Fibro!!!! :) You aren't alone. We are all here for you to vent, or whatever you need to do. God bless. Love et hugs your way/
