Yes, my bald patches on my scalp when newly bald, feel quite hot when I touch them. I am not sure if this is due to extra sun exposure on the new bare skin, or the immune system going into overdrive in that area.

Actually, last night I noticed that one of my larger bald spots was warmer than the rest of my head. I hadn't noticed before, but last night, I did. Strange!

Alopecia not only is an autoimmune disorder, it is an inflammatory condition as well, and the areas where you are losing hair actively are generally the areas that tend to tingle the most. Just like any area on your body that is fighting an infection, the areas where your immune…
