Question

My child’s hair is falling out in patches, and the affected areas are a bit red. After falling out, the hair turns white. There’s no pain or itching, but I’m worried it might fall out completely.

Answer

The reasons for a child’s hair loss may include seborrheic alopecia, blood deficiency, blood heat acne, kidney deficiency acne, and genetic factors. Treatment should be tailored to the specific symptoms. At the same time, attention should be paid to nutritional management, maintaining a cheerful mood, eating less spicy and irritating food, avoiding high-fat foods, and ensuring adequate sleep. These measures can help improve hair loss issues.
