General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I have read your description and understand your concern.
It appears that you are continuing to have hair fall because the infection of the scalp has not yet subsided completely.
Kindly use shampoo containing Ketoconaole on alternate days for 2 months. Weekly use shampoo containing Salicylic acid and Selenium.
Gradually, your hair fall should subside. Later you may use these shampoo according to your needs.
Despite these measures, if hair fall does not subside satisfactorily, the cause needs to be evaluated and treated, for which you need to consult Dermatologist.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
