I am a young femaleCondoms Female condoms Female sexual dysfunction that recently received three KenalogKenalog Kenalog in orabase Kenalog-10 Kenalog-40 25cc injections over the last two months for an ankleAnkle pain Ankle sprain Ankle sprain - series Ankle sprain swelling Atopy on the ankles Foot, leg, and ankle swelling Lichen simplex chronicus on the ankle Sprained ankle injury from my podiatrist. Over the last 8 weeks, I have had acne and a rash on my faceFace pain as well as hair loss from my scalp. I finally realized after getting an injection a few days ago and watching my hair loss nearly quadruple from the prior weeks, that the commonCommon cold link was that I just had the injection. After seeing my dermatologist and consulting with my podiatrist and my pharmacist, they all agreed that this is the cause. I would like to know if you know anything about this type of side effect and if so, if the hair loss is permanent or if my hair should regrow once the meds are out of my system and how long that should take, it's been almost 8 weeks, but just almost a week since the last shot? I believe what I have is folliculitis as my scalp is burning. I am also wondering if this is how I was affected by this med, should I be concerned about other damage to my system such as thyroid issues or other adrenalAddison’s disease Adrenal gland biopsy Adrenalectomy Catecholamines - blood type issues? Also would like to know if you know of any treatments for this condition or what I need to do to try to stop this hair loss before I lose all my hair? Thank you.
