Blow to back of head

Blow to back of head

In October 2008 I head the back of my head on the road.  Sense then I have had alot of hair lose. Feel like I have fever in the spot that hit hard. Should I go see a Doctor?  Confused!  I have not felt the same or well sense the fall.

Hi,

Hair loss can occur after head injury. This condition is known as telogen effluvium where the hair enters into the telogen phase earlier than usual resulting in hair loss. This could also be alopecia if you have a positive family history of baldness.
I would suggest you to consult a dermatologist about it. Thanks
