Alopecia areata causes treatments

  1. It happens when white blood cells attack the follicles in the head; the reason is unknown. It is the same as how the body reacts to allergies like milk; although milk is harmless it still triggers the immune system and tells it to destroy the intruder. The same is the case here.

  2. Research also said that genetic factors might be involved in such a case, one of the family members might have the same disease. Or it might be in its forefathers.

  3. It is not confirmed by the studies and researches also point towards genetics but, extreme stress is also said to be the cause of alopecia areata.

As we have gone through the causes of alopecia, let’s look at its treatments:

Since its cause is unknown, therefore there is no sure treatment for such disease. But you can try these ways (after getting advised by your medical practitioner):

  • Corticosteroids: They are powerful anti-inflammatory drugs that can suppress the immune system.

  • Minoxidil: Promotes hair growth.

  • Anthralin: Same function.

  • Photochemotherapy:  It is supported by some research and is an option for patients who are unwilling to go through invasive therapies.

  • Quercetin: It is a bioflavonoid found in fruits and vegetables that can stop alopecia before it starts to gain momentum. As it`s only been tested on animals yet, and human trials are not done. Therefore, claiming it as a perfect cure against such a disease is useless.

It is not a virus, and it is not contagious as well, but the loss of patches of hair can be disturbing for some people. Let me tell you natural remedies for alopecia areata so, that your body can get a slight relief (remember remedies are never promoted or supported by the doctors/surgeons and they are always not the permanent cure):

  • Rubbing onion or garlic juice: In hair loss, it is always said to use this remedy. It is pretty effective in such cases.

  • Cooled green tea

  • Almond oil/rosemary oil: Instead, for the case of hair loss, I will also advise you to use it; if you want to have hairs on the head after 40.

  • Coconut milk

Some people also go for acupuncture and aromatherapy. Alopecia areata symptoms and how doctors diagnose them are given below.

Symptoms:

  1. Coin sized grafts fall out mainly from the scalp.

  2. It can be sudden or start slowly, probably take a week.

  3. You might face itching or burning on the head.

  4. It can also affect fingernails or toenails, either at the last or at first. If you have other issues with nails, you can leap in deeper for symptoms:

  • Dents appear at the end of the nails.

  • They can become rough.

  • They can lose their shine as well.

  1. Additional signs are white, cadaver, and exclamation hair.

Diagnosis:

Doctors/dermatologists can easily diagnose such a disease by looking at the symptoms, if they fail to do so; they will offer a skin biopsy. If you had a somewhat same disease as alopecia in the past, the dermatologist might ask for a blood test. But, it`s not necessary because its symptoms are easily recognizable and can be distinguished from other diseases as well. If you want to consult the best doctor for alopecia causes and treatments in Lahore then Dr. Ahmad Chaudhry is the top specialist.
