Cellulitis and Hair Loss: How are they Related?

Hair loss can be caused by many things. Bad genes or bad diet or hormonal imbalance are three possibilities.

For others there is no cause to explain the bald patches.

For others still, their situation might be caused by an illness called cellulitis.

What is Cellulitis? Basically it's a skin and tissue infection that can affect any part of the human body, including the scalp.

Cellulitis starts from a cut or a scratch. Once the bacteria starts to affect the area inflammation results. Followed by redness, swelling and pain.

Then just how is cellulitis related to hairloss?

The inflammation we just talked about can cause your hair to fall out. Then the infected area will keep any hair from going back. Giving the appearance of hair loss. Which is how cellulitis can lead to temporary hair loss.

The good news is that this condition is not contagious. And the symptoms don't spread easily. Even better they can be fairly easily treated. And when treated correctly any hair loss you've experienced along with the other symptoms will be reversed. All indications of hair loss will be gone.
