Hi, this is a question that has me very concern. Well first of all I am 49 years of age, my hair has always been very thin and it has constantly broken off when ever I comb my hair, Know I have a problem and I really don't know what is going on, because when ever I comb or touch my hair or even touch my scalp it really hurts alot. Could you please tell me whats going on and should I be concern? also could you tell me what type of shampoo and conditioner I should use.
Thank you.

It's normal to loose 80-100 strands of hair per day. So if this is the case then don't panic in the shower. However, if you loose more than that and symptoms of scalp pain continue for more than 5 days, then you should consider a medical consultation. It could be sensitivity or reaction to a recent product or treatment you recently used or it can be a medical disorder like iron deficiency, thyroid imbalance or it can be an inflammatory skin condition. Your next step is to get to the root of your scalp problem by consulting your symptoms in more detail with your medical doctor or a dermatologist.
