What should I do if my baby has a bald patch?

1. Overview

Xiao Zhang's child is two years old this year. He has always been in good health and rarely gets sick. Xiao Zhang has a worrying thing. When his child was one year old, there was a patch of scalp without hair. Many people said it was alopecia areata and that the child would get better slowly. But it's been almost a year now and it's still the same. Xiao Zhang is afraid that the child will always be like this, which will not only affect his appearance but may also cause some psychological harm to the child. Later, a colleague told Xiao Zhang some methods that could be effective in treating alopecia areata, and Xiao Zhang hurriedly treated his child.

2. Steps/Methods:

1. Ginger therapy. Ginger contains gingerol, which can dilate the blood vessels in the skin and mucous membranes, enhance blood circulation, and stimulate hair growth. Take a piece of ginger, cut a slice with a knife, wash it clean, and rub it back and forth on the area where hair loss occurs. Rub it for 5 minutes each time until the scalp becomes warm. Rub it twice a day and keep using it until the hair grows out.

2. Diet therapy. The main component of hair is protein, which is also a necessary nutrient for hair growth. Therefore, it is necessary to supplement children, especially those with hair loss, with sufficient protein. Children should be encouraged to eat more protein-rich foods such as milk, fish, and soy products. In addition, you can also eat more foods such as black sesame, black beans, and kelp that help care for your hair.

3. Get enough sleep. Hair also needs to undergo metabolism. The metabolic period of hair is mainly at night, especially between 10 pm and 2 am. If you sleep during this period of time, you can ensure the normal metabolism of hair, which is beneficial to hair growth. Therefore, it is best to urge your children to go to bed before 10 o'clock in the evening.

3. Notes:

Alopecia areata in children will not affect their physical health, but if not treated in time, the child will inevitably feel inferior when he or she grows up, which will bring psychological pressure to the child and even affect his or her normal life and study. Therefore, parents should treat their children as early as possible and actively, and strive for an early cure.
