I'm developing these white bead-like things on my scalp that I can pull out with my nails. Even after I shampoo, they come back in about 2-3 days, and sometimes they're black. I'm also experiencing hair thinning and hair fall. Could you let me know what's going on?

I've been dealing with this itching all over my body for about 4 weeks now, ever since I had surgery to remove a nail from my femur. They used total anesthesia. It's so frustrating, especially at nightit keeps me from sleeping. I'm not sure if this itching is normal after surgery. And now, I've started experiencing some shortness of breath. Could this be related to anxiety or is it something else entirely? I'd really appreciate some guidance on this.
