Suggest Treatment For Burning And Itching Scalp

I have been to 4 dermatologists, immunologist and rheumatologist. Had six biopsies. Still can t help me. Had scalp burning and itching after a trip from Florida back last May 2015. Hair hurts and top of my head. I got it under control with zinc shampoos. In October 2015 had cystoscopy and he gave me 1 cipro. Next day I broke out with a burning sunburn like rash neck, shoulders, back down my spine to my waist. Flares up worse at night. Whole body looks sunburned. Around back of arms and chest looks sunburn too but doesn t burn like my back and spine. Have high autoimmune, senses are keen to smells, and seems to be worse under pressure and lying down radiates down my who body. Don t know if the scalp and the burning rash are connected or not. Tried detergents, lotions, shampoos, not hair coloring. Had Predisone, and other anti-histamines. I ve been suffering now for about 10 months! Could this be neurological? they are passing me around now at the U of Rochester to my 4th dermatologist and want to take yet another biopsy. No muscle weakness, or joints. Just burning pain between my shoulders and down my spine.
