what is the reason for patchy hair loss over the scalp

Members don't see this ad.
 
well, it could be tinea capitis, you would need fluorescence to be sure though. I would go see a dermatolgist first

Pathcy baldness you say kind of like my baldness except not so patchy and more male pattern..y

My initial thoughts are tinea capitis as well that rascal of a fungal infection (my butt itches)

but maybe giving the limited info you are dealing with a psychiatric patients with Trichotillomania (the compulsiveness to pull out ones own hair)

i mean either way!!!

cut me some slack if I am wrong I am just an MSI with a dream for Derm Gig!! :cool: :cool: :cool:

Not to be a downer or @$$hole or anything, but it might be very difficult to match into derm from a non-US med school (assuming you're in Israel).

Why dont you try telling me something I haven't heard at least 50 times, of course I mean I was told the same thing about medical school and college for that matter...

But hey whatever!
