I have had very intermittent, like 4-5 times in the past 5 1/2 years of burning scalp, like a bad sunburn and it can come down to my forehead and effect my eyes and cause my eyes to burn. It is awful when it happens, its worse than it sounds. No one has named it anything but occipital neuralgia seems like it would cover it. I had a cervical fushion at 5-6, 7 months ago. The last time I felt it was November and December of 2021. I find it interesting that you mentioned your neck and skull were not aligned correctly. I lost my lordotic curve and now aligned. I hope that was the cause. Thanks for sharing.
