What Causes Pain In Hair Roots On The Scalp?
I am a bit embarrassed to ask such a trivial question but here goes....What causes the scalp to hurt at the root of the hair ...a pain that feels like a bruise. I had this feeling all over my head when I went through chemo but that left after a while....I have often had this bruising pain and always wondered what caused it.
thank you

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern this type of hair root pain is seen many times the most probable reason behind this is keep the hair in opposite direction of their growing for sometime then this could cause a pain but this is just nothing to worry this pain does not last long once the hair comes in original position the pain goes away, hope this information helps you, have nice day.
