What causes baldness on the head of a 7 year old?
Patient: My 7 year old Asperger son has a horse shoe uniformed bald shape on the top of his head. At first I figured he was pulling his hair to feel the tension to feed his sensory issues. Now I am wondering if that is not the issue due to the perfect uniform shape starting at his temples to just over half way on the top of his head again forming a perfect U shape. Any ideas?
