Scalp dysesthesia is characterized by abnormal cutaneous sensations such as burning, stinging, or itching of the scalp. This condition is particularly challenging to manage as there is a lack of well-established treatments. By limiting release of neurotransmitters such as substance P, glutamate, and calcitonin gene-related peptide, botulinum toxin may have a role in ameliorating neuropathic pain. We report a unique case in which botulinum toxin was used in the management of scalp dysesthesia.
头皮感觉异常的特征是头皮出现异常的皮肤感觉，如灼烧、刺痛或瘙痒。由于缺乏成熟的治疗方法，这种病症的治疗极具挑战性。通过限制P物质、谷氨酸和降钙素基因相关肽等神经递质的释放，肉毒杆菌毒素可能在改善神经性疼痛方面发挥作用。我们报告了一例使用肉毒杆菌毒素治疗头皮感觉异常的独特病例。
