I don't know about scalp but I do know that chronic hives (itchy skin) is a common symptom of RA (as confirmed by literature and my rheumatologist). I suffered with hives starting about the same time as other RA symptoms appeared. Now that I'm taking Enbrel, the hives are almost completely gone.

RA can affect your skin. Many autoimmune diseases can affect the skin.
