Hi Debbru,

Getting a hot or warm scalp is a very general symptom and could apply to many conditions.

For example:

Warmth can be an indication of a rash or infection.
It could be contact dermatitis if you’re allergic or being irritated by something you’re using. E.g. creams, cleansers, soap, shampoos or conditioners. (Try something fragrance and sulfates free).
The scalp tends to get sore, hot or irritated before hair loss after chemotherapy. Due to inflammation.
Depending on age it could be an symptom of menopause
Hormonal changes in general
Side effects of medications

I believe going to your treating doctor or a dermatologist probably would be for the best, due the long list of possibilities - especially if you’re in discomfort.

But for now I suppose you should avoid direct sunlight exposure to the affect area, try not to wear anything too warm or wooly on the head, use a cold compress – try peppermint oil or aloe vera as they act as natural cooling agent, wash your hair regularly to avoid dirt or oil accumulations.
