18 days post FUE (3000 grafts at hairline) after applying a little pressure washing side parts of hair a detectable lump found in my hand looks like I removed one follicle (see picture). It clearly was growing as a double hair single implant but is now out of my head along with the base to the hair, I presume the follicle or perhaps the dermal papilla. Is that a permanently lost graft, as that's what is seems rather than the standard hair shock loss one anticipated?

Answer: 18 days post FUE hair transplant. Did I permanently lose graft or is it just a shed hair?
After 2 months, it is unlikely that the fever will affect your grafts. However, if you are concerned, it is best to contact your surgeon for post surgery issues and care since all doctors have slightly different instructions.
