Toddler's Grey Hair
Hello Doctors, my son is four years old. He had around 1-2 grey hairs when he was one year old. But now I can see a few more like 5-6. What could be the reason? Could you please suggest to me what can be done to avoid further increase of grey hairs.

Hello ma'am, there is no permanent solution for graying of hair. Premature graying can be genetic,nutritional deficiency etc. So you can go for blood tests (vitamin profile, thyroid profile) to rule out proper cause. If the cause is corrected further graying can be prevented.
Visit the clinic or take an online consultation.
