Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your experience with indentations on your scalp with pains during massage Did you sustained any injury? If not I will suggest one of the following causes

Meanwhile please see an appointment with a neurologist specialist for expert clinical assessment Councelling and adequate drug prescription
Take tablet nurofen pending your appointment
