Hello,
Thank you for posting on HCM.
It seems you are suffering from Seborrheic dermatitis,which secondarily leads to hairfall and thus its important to treat it first hand. I would recommend you a short course of oral antifungal drugs like ketoconazole/itraconazole and a lotion containing clotrimazole and betamethasone twice a day over scalp for few weeks. Use a medicated shampoo containing ketoconazole and salicyclic acid twice a week. Take antihistaminics as required for itching. Avoid excessive use of hair oil.
As for the hairfall, start oral supplements containing biotin and other essential vitamins and minerals (Follihair new) once a day for atleast 3 months.
Hope this will take care of your query.
Thank you
