Need Help What Could Be Causing This by OgaBenji: 6:16pm On Dec 28, 2023
It started November last year, just like a little patch and gradually it started spreading, have consulted physician in my locations and they kept proscribing ringworm drugs for me and yet nothing,

Please has anyone experience something like this, most barbers keep telling me it would go on it own, but it a year plus and no end in sight.

I am not a doctor...

But this could be alopecia areota.

Same disorder causing Jada Pinkett's baldness.
(in fact na this thing cause slap that year grin)

It's caused by the hair follicles being attacked by the body's immune system.


Sometimes the hair grows back on its own with time... Other times it may be permanent!

You're right.

Did you research well on this? You can only prevent it from spreading.
