Hello lybrate-user You seem to have a scalp infection, most probably seborrheic dermatitis, which is causing you distress and hair loss. Avoid oil only if you have oily scalp otherwise apply olive oil an hour before bath n then wash. Ketoconazole shampoo is to b used only twice a week, use any mild shampoo otherwise. Wash hair alternate days, do not rub towel vigorously on wet hair. Keep your comb separate and keep it clean. All these precautions will help manage the existing infection But to control it you need to start internal homeopathic medication. PLEASE feel free to contact me for any questions or treatment.
