Question : I got scabies 8 years back and I took medicines for about 2 years to control that. I am having hairfall problem since I got scabies. I don't have severe scabies now, but I still have hairfall problem. Can the scabies and hairfall problems be related? If yes, what can be the solution to control hairfall?
Thank you.

Hello
Thanks for the query.
Hair fall has no relation to scabies.
