Can small fiber neuropathy create crawling sensation on scalp?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sounds possible: The common cause thought of is diabetes and locations 1st in feet and fingers - but there are other diseases too and anyplace there is skin w/ nerve endings may be affected. When you see your doctor, mention it and perhaps it can be addressed - there are effective treatments in many cases.
