I've been noticing more than 50 hairs falling out every day, and they often have a white bulb at the root. Should I be worried about this? What could be causing it, and is there something I should do to stop it?

its normal to loose 50 to 100 strands in a day if it is bothering you much visit dermatologist for evaluating the cause of hairfall and for appropriate treatment.

I've been dealing with this really annoying itch on my scalp for over 1520 days now. I've tried dandruff shampoos and even mixed tea tree oil with coconut oil, but nothing seems to help. There's definitely no lice or dandruff, and thankfully, my hair isn't falling out in clumps or anything, just the usual few strands. I'm starting to think this all began after I used a certain type of mehndi on my hair. Could that be the cause? What should I do next?

I just really want to understand how much hair fall is considered normal each day. Sometimes I notice around 67 hairs falling out, and other times it's like 30 to 40. I'm also using Laxet forte tablets and applying Diprovate Plus lotion on my scalp, as my doctor advised. Should I be rubbing in the lotion or just spraying it on my scalp? And is there a chance this might help with regrowth?

Normal hair fall per day is 50-100 strands,you are using appropriate treatment you can continue that,u have to gently massage prescribed amount of lotion evenly over scalp.

I'm dealing with this skin thing that's kinda like a fungal infection, where I get these red rings. Sometimes it clears up on its own but then comes back. I'm trying to figure out which cream is better for it, Panderm Plus or Zoderm E? Any advice would be awesome!

Based on your description of a recurring fungal infection with red ring-like lesions, both Panderm Plus (clotrimazole + beclomethasone) and Zoderm-E (clotrimazole) can be effective; however, Panderm Plus might be a better option as it combines an antifungal (clotrimazole) with a mild steroid (beclomethasone) to reduce inflammation and itching
