Neurologist,  's  Response
This is something called post head trauma pain syndrome. There is many a times minor injury to the nerve rootlets and small vessels on the scalp which might lead to a persistent numbness, increased sensitivity and headaches in the patients Please go to your neurologist if the pain and increased sensitivity in unbearable. He/she will be able to help you, I am sure.
