How To Check Hair Loss In Specific Itchy,tender Area In Scalp?

Hello, i'm having an issue with hair loss in one particular spot of my scalp. it is really tender and gets really itchy at times. I would describe the sensation as "burning". It seems as though the symptoms are spreading to other parts of my scalp. what should i do to cure the itching and stop the hair loss? What can i do to stimulate hair growth in the spot where the hair has already been lost?

Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
The condition is called the alopecia,it is to be treated by a specialist,for complete cure.
I advise you to consult a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment.If noresponse ,you can consult a trichologist for diagnosis.
As you have itching and burning you can have good result.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms grisofulvin, ketokonazole shampoo,and injection of steroid in the place of alopecia.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and protein rich foods to have blood, good health and resistance against the infections and hair growth.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
