    Car Sick

    It’s not uncommon to feel more prone to motion sickness after surgery, especially if your body is still adjusting. The combination of eating right before driving and a rough-idling car could definitely contribute to it. For your long trip, try waiting 30 minutes after eating before getting in the car, keep the windows cracked for fresh air, and stick to light snacks. Ginger candies or motion sickness meds like Dramamine can also help. If the rough idle is a big factor, it might be worth getting your car checked—it could make the ride smoother and more comfortable. Hopefully, this is temporary and improves as you recover!

    Anyone else

    It sounds like your scalp might be reacting to the rapid hair growth, which can sometimes cause itchiness due to increased oil production or sensitivity. Dandruff could be a sign of dryness, buildup, or even a mild fungal imbalance, which might explain the itching too. An anti-itch shampoo could definitely help, especially if it has ingredients like tea tree oil, salicylic acid, or zinc pyrithione, which are great for calming irritation and addressing dandruff. You might also want to try moisturizing your scalp with a light oil (like argan or jojoba oil) to balance dryness. If the problem persists or worsens, it could be worth checking with a dermatologist to rule out any underlying scalp conditions. But hey, congrats on the extreme growth—that’s a nice silver lining!
