Here's a quick, very minimal explanation-
1.) Where did the scar come from and why does it hurt so much when
Voldemort is doing evil?
First, that scar is very unique. No one has ever survived a death
curse before, so no one can predict or anticipate it's
characteristics. Next, not only is the scar a result of a magic curse,
it is also the result of the combining forces of Love and Hate, and
perhaps, the combining of all those forces along with some yet unknown
internal force possessed by Harry. That's certainly a lot of force all
concentrated in on spot. So, my theory is that, not only was some
magical residue left by the curse, but a great deal of emotional
residue. It's is through this emotional residue that Harry is
intimately linked to Voldemort. Through a magical emotional bond/scar,
Harry's physical scar reflects Voldemorts feelings. When Voldemort is
near, the intensity of that feelings overwhelm Harry. Voldemort's
feelings are consistently negative, so the sensations in the scar are
negative (pain).
2.)Why was Voldemort's touch so painful to Harry?
The only time I am aware of that Voldemort made physical contact with
Harry is in the graveyard when Voldemort regains his body. My guess is
the pain in his scar, was simply a result of Voldemort being in such
close proximity. It wasn't specifically the touch; although how much
close can you get than touching someone? Being that close to the
evil, murderous, hateful feelings of Voldemort; allowed those intense
negative feeling to be reflected in the scar. Harry's feeling was
intense because the Voldemort's emotions were intense, negative, and
very close.
Note:
It's doubtful that anyone can truly explain how and why the scar acts
the way it does since, even in the fictional world of the book, it is
unique. But I believe that the combined forces of magic, love, & hate
left Harry with a psychic link to Voldemort. Perhaps in the future
Harry will be able to exploit that link. Perhaps as a way of spying on
Voldemort. We already know that Harry's dreams have shown him, what we
assume are real event, and possibly, although not clear, showed them
in realtime as they occurred.
Just some thoughts.
