Just a grumble really, I had spinal surgery (neck disc replacement) last Saturday. On weds I started to lose hair. The tangle teezer is turned black when I have brushed my hair. If I comb, same happens.
i have read that judge reason this happens is that general anaesthetic stops your body, I effect and this obviously stops your hair growth phase. When the ga wears off, your body gets back to normal and also your hair starts growing again but sheds the hairs that have stopped before new ones push through the follicles.
i hadn't shed much for a pn awfully long time prior to my op. Something like 30 hairs a week so I reckon I will lose a fair bit in the foreseeable.
getting my stitches out later on then I can take my collar off and wash my hair. I will use some indian herbs I reckon and see if I can halt this a bit!
anyone else had a massive post op shed?
