Hi,

As per your query you have symptoms of hair loss which seems to be due to fungal infection, hair follicle infection leading to folliculitis, side effects of any medications or allergies to certain shampoos or hair cosmetics.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you consult a Trichologist and get evaluated and he can advise you treatments depending upon the exact cause of the problem. In case of fungal infection, antifungal shampoos along with steroid lotion massage can relieve. In the case of Folliculitis or Impetigo, antibiotic ointments and oral antibiotics can be advised. Maintain cleanliness of scalp.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
