I'm on the 6th day post op. Lots of scabbing and dried blood, and today after applying the moisturising cream and washing my hair, I've gently tried to remove some of the scabs. Unfortunately, while doing so, I've realised that some hair has come off as well and a drop of blood (you can see the pic). Did I lose some grafts? I'm really worried now.

Answer: It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen.
It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen. Drying your hair or keeping your hair wet has no impact on hair loss or hair growth.
If you are having issues after surgery, especially with "tightness" you should contact your doctor. There is no way to tell what is going on via Internet.
