Wk 3 was bad, but wk 4 is getting even worse. At wk 3 my doc injected scalp with a steroid. My scalp continues to hurt all over and in a number of points away from the incision is super painfully sensitive to touch. This is not a sign of a permanent hair loss, is it? What else can I do besides being patient for the next 6 mo/yr to assure no more hair loss and to boost re-growth. I only wash my hair 2x wk, do not use hair dryer or irritating shampoo/conditioners, am eating more protein. Thanks
