I am 53/weight-125- the back of my scalp feels very tight sometimes. A few years ago, I colored my hair, and believe that I chemically burned my scalp, and was prescribed prednisone. Since then,I find that sometimes after I get my hair cut, the tightness increases, and I think it may be a direct result of my swollen itchy eyelids, and more recently, swollen, red flaky underneath the eyes. I also have been diagnosed with torticollis.
