@stonewheel This is from the Kevzara website -
"Kevzara suppresses IL‑6 signaling, which lowers immune defenses.
Infections of the skin or hair follicles (folliculitis, cellulitis) can sometimes present as:
Localized scalp tenderness
Warmth or sensitivity"

This might be what you are experiencing. Possibly not a full blown infection, just a low grade. Just a thought, especially if the pain was not near the temples.

Thank you for finding and sharing that. That sounds like what I am experiencing. Not near or close to the temple areas.
Sensitive but not warm. (Glad it’s not warm.)
I had been all over their site but that didn’t register at the time. Thank you for a second set of eyes!!!
