Suggest Remedy For Scalp Numbness While Suffering From Migraine
Occipital neuralgia should be evaluated as a possibility.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.
I have read your query and understand your concerns.
Scalp numbness can be related occasionally to migraine headaches, but always occurs AFTER the crisis.
If no time relationship between numbness and migraine, in other words, if numbness occurred independently, occipital neuralgia should be evaluated further as a possible cause of the numbness and partially as cause of headaches.
Occipital neuralgia is a nerve compression condition and NSAID drugs together with physical therapy as first steps toward treatment help improve symptoms.
I suggest you to discuss with your Neurologist this diagnosis as a possible cause of your symptoms.
Hope this helps. Best regards.
