A member asked:
What can be done for neuropathy on your head?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neuropathy: The first question is to determine the cause of the neuropathy. For example, shingles can result in neuropathy of the scalp. There are several "neurotrophic" drugs that can be tried. I would consult a neurologist.
