Burning sensation in scalp and hair fall
From few days iam suffering from acute burning sensation on scalp forehead and under eye area,also iam suffering from lot of hair fall.
I got my tests done everything was ok except vitamin b12 , doctor told me the burning sensation of scalp could be because of peripheral nuerology and gave me vitamins as well as b12 injection.
Still what can I do to subside burning and hair fall?

Hello.... a woman of your age can have multiple causes for hairfall that can be determined by few simple tests and good online consultation - most treatments for hairfall can be done by yourself from the comfort of your home. As for the burning sensation a good examination of the scalp and careful history can help tell us the cause - this can also be done via pictures. Kindly reach out to me for an online consultation where I can help you.
