Hi mandeep,

you are suffering from seborrhoeic dermatitis and diffuse hair fall,

you must visit dermatologist for correct diagnosis and treatment of your scalp condition.

mean while you can use a good anti dandruff shampoo like sebowash .

dont try any home remedies as it may worsen the condition .

best of luck
wish you healthy hairs.
