10 Symptoms of Scurvy
Symptom #3: Corkscrew Hair
We tend to spend a lot of time on our hair and how it looks. Some people are also more fortunate than others with their hair, with natural styles that are considered to be appealing. Others, though, are less fortunate and have natural hair that needs a lot of work to get it how they want. Sometimes, our hair can also be affected directly by an illness.
Scurvy causes a condition known as corkscrew hair, which causes otherwise healthy hair to develop twists and kinks. It also becomes very fragile, breaking easily, and bald patches can easily form. Hair that is in such poor condition could be a sign of numerous illnesses and is something that should be taken seriously.
