Causes and Symptoms of Abdominal Discomfort & Hair Fall
The pain in the abdomen need not be related to the excessive hair loss that you suffer from. And both these symptoms together do not tie up to indicate the presence of worms in the stomach. Excessive loss of hair might occur due to hormonal changes.


A major surgery might also lead to excessive hair loss. In this case, it's an indication of the stress that the surgery has caused. Hyperactive thyroid glands can also lead to loss of hair.


So, do check your thyroid glands if the hair loss doesn't decrease after a period of time.

Fungal infections can also get your scalp to shine in the sun. So remember to wash your hair frequently. As for the pain in the abdomen, since it's on the left side, it might be a urinary tract infection. Had it to be appendicitis, you would have felt the pain to the right of your abdomen. Of course, there would be a slight dull pain pervading all over the abdominal area but later that would have gotten concentrated to the right of the abdomen. It could also be due to a muscle pull. Alternatively, it could be due to constipation as well. Hence, it's best if you consult your family physician and follow the recommended medication.
