Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Can Depression And Psychological Problems Be Treatment By Something Besides Drugs?
I had a head injury at 15 years old. There is a small dent and no hair grows there. It is located near my hairline in the center of my forehead. There also a crack from that point down to my rightside browbone. I developed headaches which I recall began at that time. A few years ago a major shooting pain overcame me also on the right front of my head. From time to time there is pain near the dent. I ve never gotten any medical attention. I also suffer from depression and psychological problems I ve gotten psychiatric treatment for. I have never put the two together. Should I seek medical attention now for this and could I expect treatment for my depression and psychological problems to include any thing more than drugs if theses two things are correlated?
Loss of hair on scalp could be due to damage to hair follicles after head injury. You need to consult your psychiatrist for psychological problem and depression. Treatment is primarily medical for depression and psychological disorder.
