Asked for female, 21 years old from Greater Noida

I'm experiencing itchy scalp from months. It looks like scalp psoriasis on the back of my neck but i'm not sure what is it. There's a red and purplish patch which itches a lot and is increasing as I have peeled off the skin due to itching. It's also causing a lot of hair loss, more than 100 when I don't comb and an handful when I comb my hair. My hair were thick and now they have become too thin and rough. It feels rough when I apply anything on it. I've been applying aloe vera gel and coconut oil but its not making any changes. How can I remove it permanently from my scalp and neck? It's very depressing to see it and i'm unable to find a cure. I have pictures of affected area but there's no option to upload. Please suggest some ointment or cream to apply on it and if any shampoo can make a difference, also for the hairloss.

Well, it's true that your hair was growing, but an itchy scalp is not a sign of hair growth. Itchiness can actually signify that your scalp is not at its healthiest, which can negatively impact hair growth. Whether it lasts days or weeks, the cause of an itchy scalp can usually be tracked down.
