Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

As per your case history you are having scalp folliculitis and hairfall, my treatment advice is -
1. Avoid using hair oil for at least 30 days.
2. Apply an antifungal lotion like clotrimazole lotion twice daily on affected part.
3. Take an iron supplement and vitamin b12 supplement once daily for 3 months.

If problem persists then consult a dermatologist.
