Scalp Tenderness
Is there any medication for scalp tenderness. The cause of mine is unknown, but the previous doctor diagnosed it as occipital neuralgia and I'm taking painkiller for that, but that tenderness is not going away, like a tingling feeling.

If you have been diagnosed with occipital nueralgia you need to consult with a nuerologist for second opinion.
