can humans get hairballs?

yes, they can and are called BEZOARS. They are an accumulation of hair, fingernails or other objects(insoluble fiber, medications) that a person ingests regularly that cannot pass on through the sphincter of Oddi that leads in to the small bowel. This sounds odd but many people chew on the ends of their hair or bite their fingernails and swallow the stuff. It can cause nausea, feeling of fullness...

Only if you have thinning hair. If you hair is full and bushy, no baldness is in your future.

I haven't found anything to support that as of yet, but cats CAN have bronchitis! This is sometimes called feline asthma, and can be mistaken for 'coughing up a hairball' or vomiting, among other things. As for the question...not a silly one at all, there are many diseases/conditions that can be passed from pets to humans...take ringworm or tapework for example. However, I do not believe this to be one of those. Good luck!

It may be just an infected hair.  They sometimes will cause exactly what you describe.  Sometimes the burst will flush it out and it will heal, but it may rise and burst several times before that happens.  Have someone look at it very closely and see if they can find a hair, otherwise just let it do it's thing.  If it continues to raise and burst you will need to see a doctor, but it shouldn't hurt anything to wait awhile and see what happens.

Pretty common. I had it when I was about 9 or 10. It was embarassing, but it happens to alot of kids.\nI remember my mom freaking out. She practically bobbed my hair short and bought the special shampoo for head lice.

Not much I'm afraid.  If your hairloss is caused by hormones, as most male pattern baldness is you are out of luck as far as most hairgrow products go.  You are then left with surgical solutions like hair implants.

humans are born with hair. it may be miniscule, or ridiculously fine, but its definitely there. by hair, we don't just mean on the top of the head, hair can be anywhere on the body, including the fine hairs on your arms and stuff.\nthe most hairless mammal i can think of is a whale; they only have hair on their lips.

Poor hygiene and lacks in care weaken hair and this also result occasional itching on skull. It may be genetically  inherited too.\nSituation may improve if personal hygiene is maintained, proper hair-care is taken and a balance diet is practiced. \nIt has been seen Vitamin E also helps  sometimes in having stronger hair.\nOne more amazing fact is, most sexy guys have weak or less hair on their heads, since sex hormone predominates collagen which is responsible for growth and strength of ones hair.

hair, because hair does not live once out of the follicle.

There are ways, but you won't like them.  Alopecia is the absence of hair.  One form is an autoimmune form where the immune system attacks the hair follicles on the whole body. Those who have this kind of alopecia wish that they had hair because it is cold without hair or eyelashes etc. \nIt is better to think of borrowing someone's hair straightener for the time being.  People that I know who had cowlicks on the front found that they went away after some time (ie after high school)
