Hair and scalp problems... Help please!?!


Question: Hair and scalp problems... Help please!?
I have a doctors appointment in a few days about this, but I want to ask what could be causing this.

I'm male, 18 years old and have never had dandruf and still don't, but my scalp is always itchy and really sensitive, especially when I have just washed my hair. My hair is REALLY dry no matter what I do. I wash it every few days and condition it afterwards, drink a lot of water and eat healthily with a lot of fruit. I also take multivitamins and fish oil capsules. The biggest problem that I think is definately to do with all the other symptoms is that my hair at the temples has lost about a centimetre in a few months...

Do you think my diet (which was bad) a few months ago could have lead to this? And if I got my hair cut it would help by getting rid of all the dry hair, and grow healthier hair with my diet in the last 2 months?

Thanks for any help! :) I'm so paranoid...

Answers:

Your severity doesn't seem to look like a simple bad diet. Abnormal hair loss and dry skin looks like something I would expect from someone who has been taking high doses of Vitamin A. Since you mentioned that you were taking multivitamins, my humble opinion would be to double check your Vitamin dosage but this is in no way a professional advice. Good luck and I hope your hair grows healthy again.
