There are still many reasons for scalp pain. Some people, perhaps because of carelessness, were hit on the head by something, or were hit by someone, resulting in local scalp injuries and scalp pain. In addition, some people may have scalp inflammation and scalp pain. There are also some patients, because the problems in the brain are reflected on the scalp, such as encephalitis, brain tumor, cerebral hemorrhage, etc., which may also lead to scalp pain at the top of the head.
Scalp pain on the top of the head is more common in scalp neuritis, which may be related to colds, lack of sleep and other reasons. Generally, it does not mean that it is caused by cerebrovascular disease. Therefore, if such symptoms appear, we should first keep good rest and sleep, pay attention to diet, and try to be light. If necessary, we can take ibuprofen or voltarin for treatment, which can relieve the symptoms of pain. If the symptoms such as scalp and head pain persist, it is best to go to the neurology department of the hospital for treatment.
Headache on the top of the head and scalp may be caused by local skin, cerebrovascular disease, trauma or neuropathic pain, and further examination is needed to find out the cause. The head skin, blood vessels, nerves and other tissues are rich in pain receptors, and when they are pressed, the stimulus signal is transmitted to the cerebral cortex to produce pain symptoms. First of all, skin tissue infection may lead to local congestion and edema, which will stimulate the inflammatory site to produce pain when pressed. Cerebrovascular diseases may cause abnormal contraction and spasm of blood vessels during pressing, resulting in obvious pain, except for imaging examination.
