The winter vacation is over, and the number of children and students in the hair loss clinic has increased all of a sudden.
Androgenetic alopecia (formerly known as seborrheic alopecia) is no longer the preserve of office workers and middle-aged uncles, and the onset of the disease is showing a clear trend of younger people, and now not only high school students, but also junior high school students will come to the hair loss clinic to report. It should be reminded that male alopecia (alopecia daceata) can also affect female students, although the overall prevalence is lower than that of men, but once it occurs, female male alopecia often manifests as a large area of diffuse sparseness, and the clinical symptoms are often severe, and the clinical symptoms are often more difficult. “Early detection, early diagnosis, early **Prevention before disease, combination of prevention and treatment, prevention is greater than cureIt should be the consensus and strategy of doctors and parents.
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease that affects people of all ages. The early age of onset is one of the clinical factors for poor prognosis, and the probability of developing severe or even total alopecia universalis (loss of eyebrows, eyelashes, and body hair) is higher. Most of them are parents and family members who enter the consultation room together, holding a thick stack of medical records, laboratory test sheets, and medication orders in their hands. After experiencing a wave of virus, mycoplasma, and bacterial infections in autumn and winter, the condition may finally stabilize and worsen, and the eyes are full of anxiety and helplessness caused by repeated illnesses, and the hard work, hardship and exhaustion of taking children around to seek medical treatment.
This psychological stress response is medically defined as fear of progression (FOP), "the fear of the various biosocial and psychosocial consequences of disease progression or the fear of disease again**.""。Therefore, when encountering children and students with severe alopecia areata who come to the clinic for the first time, in addition to the examination, it usually takes a lot of time to comfort the parentsExplain the condition and emphasize the importance of norms。I have repeatedly admonished you in previous articles,"There are no shortcuts to hair loss**And often the more complicated the form, the more expensive it sells, the more like a shortcut. This phrase in children and adolescents with alopecia should be added,".If you go in the wrong direction, you will lose your life
As a result, the child took more than 1 year of medicine in a row, and his appetite became better and better, and the more he ate, the fatter he became, and finally he had symptoms of pseudoprecocious puberty, and his height development was affected. There is also a parent who thinks that hair loss is a lack of nutrition, dazzling hair growth products on the Internet, has given the child more than a dozen kinds of nutrition, tonics, health products, hair did not grow at all, but the scalp is getting more and more greasy, until one day the child said that people have no strength, muscle pain, go to the hospital for blood tests and found that liver and kidney function, creatine kinase indicators are abnormal.
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child is an important international convention. The Convention defines a child as a minor under the age of 18. In the "best interests of the child" it is written,When parents or responsible persons decide on matters related to minors, they should think about how their decisions will affect the minors before making decisions。All adult responsible persons should do what is beneficial to minors.
Effectively caring for children and adolescents with hair loss requires not only doctors to constantly use new technologies and new technologiesIt is also necessary for parents to provide a healthy living environment and social environment for their children。"We don't understand", "What they say", "It's a medicine that is poisonous, so I don't take my child to the doctor"...These statements are not a basis for an adult's exoneration, and can't make up for itGoing in the wrong directionEternal regret brought.
