Accepted Answer

I understand your concern about rapid hair fall and pimples.

Hair Fall After Dengue Fever

1. Telogen Effluvium: Dengue fever can cause Telogen Effluvium, a condition where hair enters the resting phase and falls out after a few months.
2. Nutritional Deficiencies: Dengue fever can lead to nutritional deficiencies, such as vitamin and mineral deficiencies, which can contribute to hair loss.
3. Hormonal Imbalance: Dengue fever can disrupt hormonal balances, leading to hair loss.

Pimples and Hair Fall Connection

1. Hormonal Imbalance: Hormonal fluctuations can contribute to both pimples and hair loss.
2. Stress: Stress can exacerbate both pimples and hair loss.
3. Nutritional Deficiencies: Deficiencies in vitamins and minerals, such as zinc, biotin, or vitamin B, can contribute to both pimples and hair loss.

Accepted Answer

Since you have already taken levocetirizine without much relief, I recommend trying a different antihistamine such as Fexofenadine (Allegra) or Hydroxyzine (Avil). Additionally, you can apply a soothing lotion containing Calamine to the itchy areas for relief. If the itching persists, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
