One of the guys i work with whose wife is a hairdresser as well had the same thing you describe. Pain to the touch, a kind of numbness and tingling all at the same time. back of the head, from just behind the ear to the other ear. Turns out it was shingles and of all people his wife correctly diagnosed it. Shingles is a rash but it can crop up anywhere. I don't profess to know everything I should know about it but it's usually found in people who have had chicken pox earlier in life. It's kind of like a latent or weaker form of the chicken pox virus from what I can tell. anyway, it is usually brought on by a reaction to stress. not always but it's a frequent precursor to it. Like Chuck said, I'd have it looked at if it persists more than 3 days or if it gets worse.
