Suggest treatment for congenital scalp problem of a 10 month baby
Patient: i am a mother of a 10mos old baby boy. he was born with a congenital scalp problem, his brain was really seen during birth..just a thin like a plastic was covered, a day after it was fully covered. i think the scalp granulated.however,there is no hair grows.is there a possibility or other means to have a hair.. Doctor: HiIt seems that your child had encephalocele which is well operated. The poor hair growth at the site of repair is usually permanent due to lack of hair follicles in the scalp scar. Don't worry as it can be easily treated later by hair transplant later once he grows up.Take care
