Most parents want their babies to grow up healthy and happy. But sometimes things don't go as planned, and some babies may develop alopecia areata at a young age, which worries parents a lot. There are many reasons that can cause alopecia areata, and if parents do not understand them clearly, they cannot receive proper treatment and care. So what is the reason for a child's alopecia areata?
Childhood alopecia areata may be caused by excessive sweating on the head, which stimulates the scalp and is usually accompanied by symptoms such as thinning and shedding of hair. There is a certain relationship between season and room temperature. In addition to thinning hair, children may also experience mental symptoms such as irritability, crying at night, and restless sleep.
It may also be due to a lack of trace elements in the child's body, or due to picky eating habits in daily life. Some children may also have local scalp hair follicle defects due to congenital factors, which prevent them from growing hair. Some children may also experience alopecia areata due to emotional and psychological disorders. As long as these conditions are fundamentally resolved and the child's alopecia areata situation is treated accordingly, it can be fundamentally improved.
It is recommended that parents follow the doctor's advice to treat their baby with some medication, and create a good living environment for the baby, maintain proper air circulation and temperature, and avoid excessive indoor temperature. When babies sweat, it is necessary to wipe them clean in a timely manner to avoid prolonged skin irritation caused by sweat.
