Hair loss - ALOPECIA
I am 17 years old and few days back I noticed that I have a patch in my hairs(scalp). A small circle in my scalp is bald but I have hairs every where on other areas normally. I searched on internet about it and came to know that it's called Alopecia (chaee in local language). I am scared that it may spread and I will loose my all hairs and become bald.Can you please tell me whether it spreads or not and will hairs grow back on the bald portion and also the remedies to cure it. Thanks in Advance.

you may be having alopecia areata. this is an autoimmune condition due to the attack of lymphocytes against hair roots. it has to be treated properly for long duration until the immunity comes down. once the immunity is controlled, hair grows back. please contact me with photos for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
