Hi Dear,

As per your query pain in the scalp and hair fall can occur due to increased stress, hormonal changes and sometimes could be due to fungal infection.

I would suggest you to

- Take diet rich in multivitamins.

- Do yoga and meditation on daily basis to release stress.

- Drink plenty of water and take proper rest.

- Massage scalp with olive oil twice daily.

You should consult dermatologist once for proper examination. Doctor may order skin patch test, blood test and physical examination. Doctor may prescribe you medication along with supplements like Vitamin A,Omega-3 and Vitamin E.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
