If you see actual grafts falling out then it will not grow for obvious reasons. If you believe you are losing grafts it is best to see your doctor for a check.
It is not unusual for grafted hair and/or some untransplanted hair to shed at this point forward.By now the grafts are firmly embedded in the scalp and growth should start in another 2-3 months.
As your surgeon should have informed you this is a normal process. They should regrow. For 11 days post op you have too many scabs on your head. My post op advice is to gently shampoo the follicles from day 1 to prevent scabbing. Not doing this has been proven to effect survival.

A tight headband would not be recommended during immediate post op. However, at 2 months you will not be causing any damage to the grafted area. I also don’t recommend frequently touching the grafted areas as it is possible for you to introduce a bacterial infection to the scalp. Typically m...
Shedding of the native hair after a hair transplant is almost always shock loss which can last up to a year. Shedding grafts is normal and can continue for a few months
Many people accidentally bump their head. If you did not bleed then you probably did not lose any grafts so don't worry
