Hair Loss after COVID
I am facing excess hair loss after i suffered from COVID. I am really worried that i will go bald in a month time because once i comb, 20-30 hairs are coming out in one way and even while taking showers so much hairs are coming out. Please suggest what i can do, i have never faced hair fall problem earlier like this. Is it because of any deficiency...?
