Question : Dear Doc. I just moved to Bahrain some 2 months back. Im facing Hair fall problem.
Im told that this is due to the water [desalinated water and the water is hard] and weather conditions.
I use coconut oil [parachute] every day and shampoo my hair [sunsilk] every two days. Please let me know what is to be done before its too late.
apart from this, i feel that my head has become a little itchy [not so bad yet] and there are these boils [two-three] on the head.

I would like to gather more information from you in regard to your query.

-How many hair do you lose per day?Approx. number, is it 100?
-Is the hair loss severe enough to cause visible thinning?
-Is the hair loss from all over the scalp or is it more from the crown/central part of the scalp?
