Hi there yes my scalp hurts all the time and it's a symptom of Fibromyalgia called Neuralgia
Scalp pain can be caused by inflamed nerves, skin or blood vessels.

I have that happen from time to time here. But it is way worse in cold weather

I find that anywhere there are nerves there can be pain. I think it all depends on what striain there has been in a given area and if muscles have tightened on the nerves. I have had pain all over the top of my head and think it comes from stress. Muscles everywhere can become tightened and contract depending on what we are doing. I have found that gently massaging my scalp everyday has helped relax the muscles and rid me of any pain most times. If you see a massage therapist they may be able to help you with this. Hope this is helpful. Good luck!

I will take it up a notch....sores or scalp boils would be in colonies on the head......pain and scalp tenderness oh my gosh....come to find out its all about the stress.....so I keep myself at the same level and stress won't be taking over me like that ever again.....

I suffer with this also. Sometimes even brushing my hair can be extremely painful. Unfortunately I haven't found anything that relieves this as I also suffer from this on my arms legs and face so wish I knew how to stop it. I was told that it is the nerves being over sensitive and sending pain signals all the time.
