Skin & Hair symptoms

Visible changes in the skin, scalp or hair that may need medical advice.

• Hair fall Hair fall means losing more hair than usual from the scalp or body. It is common after stress, illness, childbirth, nutritional problems or scalp conditions, and a clinician can help look for treatable causes.
• Skin rash A skin rash is a change in skin colour, texture or feeling, such as redness, bumps, itching or peeling. Rashes can come from allergy, infection, heat, medicines or other conditions, and some need urgent care.
