scalp pain and hair loss

Hi i’m not sure if this will reach anyone this is my first time using this app. I was diagnosed with MS 1 year ago i don’t know too much about the condition but one thing i’ve been suffering from constantly is scalp pain it feels like the crown of my head is bruised 24/7 even when i wash it. It worsens when i do ponytails or buns im not sure how to treat it if anyone has any recommendations please let me know thank you!

I have the same, head pressure and pain, with headaches. I lost so much hair that it was best to cut it short, and it truly hasn’t grown but I have had 6 MRI in the year 😪 I had a bad allergic reaction to gabapentin and bacolfin. I have found that hyperbarics oxygen therapy has helped some in relieving the head pressure and headaches some, not completely but it’s something. If and when you can afford it..
