Greg,
Yes, I've experienced something similar when I've worn a cap for extended
periods of time. When it's cold I sometimes even start out with a knit cap in
bed.
I'm not making light of your situation, but have you ever considered shaving
your head? I know that could be a drastic step for many people.
Don.

Subject: [QUAD-L] Head Itch, Ache
My head itched so bad,
the dermatologist gave me a special shampoo. But I realized it's not really
itchy like normal. Though it feels so good when scratched. It's more like hurt
hair. Ever have your hair hurt? I'm sure it's not really the hair, but feels
that way. 2 things are causing it that I know of. One is when my hair is bent
back on my pillow. Then my scalp hurts when I move my hair. Second thing is I
have a cowlick on the top/back of my scalp. My hair grows in a backwards
direction in 1 area. It really makes my hair / scalp hurt when touched. And
Itch. Greg
