Children's heads with small patches of baldness

Patient's question:

Born with it, 3 years old this year

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this possibility of alopecia areata cannot be ruled out. It is recommended to complete the examination, confirm the diagnosis before treatment, pay attention to skin hygiene and follow-up, and eat nutrient-rich foods in daily life to avoid partiality leading to malnutrition, which may affect hair growth.
