Good day house.
Please i need your help.
About 10 years ago i started feeling some slight headache and heaviness on my head.
This continued to increase.
I thought it was inside my head.
I went to the hospital severally and did several test,but they saw nothing.
Just some few weeks ago i observed it was actually my scalp that is folding and growing heavy as you can see in the pictures.
Please,what could be causing this?
What can i do to stop and reverse this.
It's causing me heaviness and pains.

You'll get better.

The questions below may seem unkind, but it could help us get a better understanding of this:

1. Does any male in your family have this on his head, too?

2. Are you from the Igbo tribe? I've noticed that some of their males have folds on their heads, and though I've never heard them tell how it started, they are not incapacitated in any way.

3. Have they ever collected samples from the ridges to test , in order know what kind of cells they are? Your complaint of pains indicates it could be more than it seems.

Visit a specialist hospital. You need more than one medical opinion. One doctor doesn't know it all, neither does one radiologist.

This is the name. Cutis verticis gyrata. I believe it will help you understand what is going on.

Please go to the hospital as soon as possible.
If after you've gotten a solution to it and you need help with growing your hair back then I can help with that (I see you're losing hair also).
Get well soon bro.

I also think it's natural, though I can't tell what the people who have it are passing through.

Cutis verticis gyrata, a morphological syndrome in which there is hypertrophy and folding of the skin of the scalp creating a gyrate or cerebriform appearance.

I am sure plastic surgery can correct it. I recommend LUTH. They have some of the best plastic surgeons in the country. You can insist on seeing Dr. Belie at the plastic clinic.

You need to carry out a CT scan or an MRI scan since it comes with aches and pains just to ascertain what exactly is wrong. Otherwise there's nothing to worry about. I've seen a handful of guys with this kind of head.

You have a condition called cutis verticis gyrata.

Cutis verticis gyrata (CVG), also known by the name paquidermia verticis gyrata, cutis verticis plicata, and "bulldog" scalp syndrome, is a rare benign cutaneous disorder that is characterized by convoluted folds and deep furrows of the scalp that mimic cerebral sulci and gyri.

It is not often treated. Good hygiene is advised to reduce accumulation of germs within the crevices.

CUTIS VERTICIS GYRATA



In most cases there's no known cause neither is there any known cure besides surgery.
