Hello,

Possible causes are like:

1. Dandruff of fungal infections.
2. Neuropathic pain.
3. Chronic headaches with hypersensitivity.
4. Anxiety.

Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Use cap becosules once a day for one week.

Also check for any middle ear infection that causing this problem. Please consult with your physician/ ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
