Red and Itchy Patch in Sindoor Area

Hello Doctor, My mother (age ~50s) has recently developed a red, itchy patch right under the sindoor application line on her scalp. It started a few days ago after she applied a local sindoor (possibly containing harsh chemicals). Since then, the area has become slightly itchy and mildly irritated plus it became full whitish kind off There’s also a faint white patch developing under the sindoor area She has no other patches anywhere on the body. There’s no bleeding, oozing, pain, or rapid spreading — but she reports mild itching. I’ve now stopped the old sindoor and ordered a branded one and we’re keeping the area clean. I’m worried — could this be contact dermatitis, a fungal infection, or something more serious like vitiligo? Please advise on diagnosis and treatment. What cream or care should we follow for now?

Child Facing Hair & Nail Issues

My daughter is facing issues with her hair and nails. Her hair growth is very slow, and there are a few small patches on her scalp where hair is not growing at all, creating visible bald spots. These areas seem to be gradually increasing. Along with this, her nails are also not growing properly. They appear thin, brittle, and tend to break or chip easily. She is otherwise active but thin . We are concerned about these symptoms and would like to understand what could be the possible reasons behind this. Kindly guide us on what steps we should take next.
