Wrinkles on Scalp

[Darren2020]

Upon waking on a morning I have several long wrinkles/creases from the back of my head towards the middle of my scalp. They are noticeable first thing but tend to fade away throughout the day, or when heat is applied too.

There are some moderate to hard lumps under the skin on my scalp, around the areas where the creases are.

Are all scalp wrinkles/creases classed as Cutis Verticis Gyrata, or can there be another condition? I’m struggling to get an appointment at my doctors surgery, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Darren2020,

Thank you for posting on the forum.

Unfortunately we are unable to give specific medical advice on individual conditions here, but hopefully you will receive some replies soon to your question, from our other members who may have experienced something similar to you. We know that it is harder to get an appointment with your GP at the moment, but we would still urge you to contact them again even for a telephone consultation. Maybe your local pharmacist would be able to help?

Kind regards

Its interesting you say when heat is applied to them they fade. You may on to something there. What about creams, maybe you can try a cream. If they are wrinkles then i am sure they are temporary inconveniences.
