Hi,

As per your query, you have symptoms of pain in roots of hair along with hair fall which could be due to improper hygiene of scalp, excess use of chemicals and underlying nutritional deficiencies. Need not to worry. I would suggest you apply Minoxidil solution and do oiling of scalp regularly. Avoid excessive exposure to sunlight and avoid using hard chemical containing shampoos.

Drink plenty of water. You should consult dermatologist once and get it examined. You should get your hemoglobin, serum ferritin levels, serum vitamin B12, and serum vitamin D levels monitored and start treatment accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
