Does anyone have earaches and scalp pain. The other day I had a weird pain in the right side of my throat, my right ear gets pains in it and my scalp is sensitive on the same side.

Yes-my left ear acts up sometimes- painful and gets plugged up and makes weird sounds. Also 1/2 of whole head is painful sometimes. I've been to the Dr for painful left ear- nothing wrong. I've been to the dentist for tooth ache- nothing wrong. And I get sore spots on my scalp. I also have bouts of headaches. All of these symptoms come and go and last for different amounts of time. FYI- I also have bladder problems that aren't bladder infections. These are hard to decifer but nothing is wrong when I go to the Dr. Seems like all of my problems seem to be fibro- and it's hard to tell if I am really sick or it's fibro.

Hi, Karen, 50 tomorrow. I frequently have an itchy scalp, especially on the crown, feels like my hair follicles are screaming, Itchy and painful. Washing it makes little difference if any. I see it as sign of yet another sign of fibro flare. I also get earache with no infection, jaw pain and building Headaches. I also get whole body itch roo. Numbness with pain esp hands and arms, hips. I've also found referred sensations, if I stroke the outside of my left eye, I feel a strange itch in the inner (tearduct). It's weird and surprising how many times I touch that area is ridiculous 😜 All of this can drive me batty!

Yes I have scalp pain..and I get sore throats..you ight want to take a Epstein Barr test..and see if it is active..that would explain the sore throat feeling and your lymph nodes well up..and causes chronic fatigue while its active ..also there is a interesting video out now by top scientific researches saying fibro is damaged nerves..which could explain a sensitive scalp..

Yes! Pain in jaw joint, worse on left. When it's really bad spreads down my neck and up my scalp to a place about three fingers from the top of my ear. Causes tinitis (ringing, buzzing, clicking) and a severe pain in my scalp. Funny thing is that, although I've read and been told that there are no pain receptors in the brain, this is the exact spot where I had a brain bleed about three years ago. Doctors don't want to do anything for the pain except narcotics, which I will not take. The comment about wearing a hat works for me, as well. I find that the fleece caps work better than the knitted watch caps because the fleece ones aren't as tight. Sleeping with one on helps me wake up with less pain.
