  • Hi Doc. Lam, I am 33 and about 23 years ago I had Tinea Capitis. That resulted to a hair-loss patch the size of a quarter. Now the skin is smooth and feels that I have lost sensation in that area of my scalp. Since it has been such a long time since I lost the hair I wanted to known if hair transplant would be the remedy. If not then what are my options as I am very subconscious about it. Thank you!

  • @jawedyusofi to me that sounds very doable with hair restoratino given the limited type of infection you had.

  • @dianawapooh will do!

  • @samlammd thank you very much. ur videos are great very informative..please continue to upload more videos

  • @dianawapooh typically, i have not heard that problem with calcium channel blockers. illness of any kind but typically more severe can cause telogen effluvium but the delay is typically 3 months after the illness.

  • @samlammd thank you doc for replying.. i have one more question.. can calcium channel blockers for hypertension cause hairloss and can illness due to a bacteria from food cause tellogen effluvium?

  • @dianawapooh sorry that is not enough information. you really need to see someone in person to help you with that, preferably a dermatologist.

  • @samlammd hi doc..a few mos ago i started to have a lot of grey hair on the right side of my head (sideburn area) but only few grays on the left side.. 2-3 weeks ago i noticed that my hair got thin,the hairline receeded, the right sideburn area that previously had a lot of grey hair got thinner also yet the left side wasnt as thin as the right.. the whole hair on my head got thinner.. is this diffuse alopecia areata? i would really appreciate the feedback..

  • @hanielroswell1981 it sure can. finasteride does not stop hair loss but slows it down but also can regrow some hair that has become miniaturized.

  • hi dr lam, does hair still shed a little if you been on finesteride for 6 months?
