Hi,My husband also has the intense burning and itching scalp, he to is also loosing hair. He said it has been the most painful thing he has ever had in his life. He has been to several dermatologists and they too give him cortizone and shampoos but nothing has helped. He a has reconstructed ankle, ruptured disks in his neck and back but there is nothing compared to the pain that his head gives him. He can wash his head in the morning and he said it feels like someone has rubbed his head raw and put gasoline on it causing severe burning and hair loss. Please let me know if you have found your problem, and I would also like to know haow yours usually starts.
Thank you
