Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that you have seborrheic dermatitis also known as dandruff and hairfall seems to be due to it as the dandruff can damage hair follicles and cause hair fall..I would suggest you to consult a Trichologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like Microscopic examination of the flakes can help in confirmation..
You can be advised to apply shampoo containing Ketoconazole, coaltar, salicylic acid, zinc, selenium, sulfides etc..
Massage the scalp with steroid lotion..
You can also be advised to apply 2% Minoxidil solution to prevent hairfall..
Take multivitamin supplements and more green leafy vegetables in diet..
Massage the scalp with warm coconut oil..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
