It possibly could be. I have discoid lupus and have sores on my head. When I get stressed they flare or when I sweat or in hot climate. My doctor has me on several meds but it doesn't seem to heal completely. I wish there was a solution.

Yes, scalp itching can be associated with lupus, however it may also be something else that is causing the trouble. For best advice, seek the help of a qualified rheumatologist.
