Suggest Remedy For Itchy Scalp With Hair Fall
Good Evening, I ve always had very fine hair but not this bad. Ever since this past September, my scalp has literally itched and burn off and on. After seeing my PCP, Dermatologist, and even a Hair Specialist in Boca Raton, I cannot seem to find out what is causing this. I had blood work drawn a year ago, and last week and all came back negative for anything abnormal. When my scalp itches/burns (inflammation) it s causing my hair to fall out so quickly that I am balding and I am only 27 years old. I m not sure what to do at this point. i have another appointment with my hair specialist May 18.

Hi,
Hair loss certainly is an issue of concern. Just check the following causes of hair loss:
1) Seborrhic dermatitis
2) Lice infestation
3) Severe stress
4) After recovery from a recent severe infection like typhoid, dengue and chicken pox etc.
5) Frequent and excessive sweating on scalp
6) Continuous exposure to pollution and dust
7) Recent change of shampoo, conditioner or hair oil.
8) Severe malnutrition
9) Alopecia areata
Among the above if you have any of the conditions, kindly make amends. The following are treatment options:
1) Tab. Trichoton forte daily twice for 2 months.
2) Minoxidil solution only at the areas of hair loss or balding.
3) Sleep for at least 8 hours a day.
4) If dandruff is the problem, ketoconazole shampoo can be used
5) Eating very healthy diet and drinking plenty of water.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
