What causes tiny hole on back of head?
Patient: I found a tiny hole in the back of my head,I found it when combing my hair and the comb kept getting stuck in the hole I begain picking at it with the comb trying to see if it was only dry skin,however it never itched,I use oil a lot after washing my hair, I have noticed I have lost quite a bit of hair about 10 inches or more in the past year.what could this be? Doctor: Hello ! I understand your concern. I would like to know if you have noticed any liquid to get out of that tiny hole?In my opinion it may be a skin problem of the scalp . It may be nothing, just a skin structural defect . But the hair loss may indicate a skin problem . I think you should be seen by a dermatologist.
