What Causes Red Patches On Scalp?
Hi, I have 2 red patches on my scalp for a few months. I got a treatment with griseofulvin for 3 months and it didn t help. My doctor said it s not an infection but doesn t know exactly what is it. Sometimes I feel itchy and my hair falls out a lot. Thanks.

Hello,
As you explain the situation a biopsy of that area is needed to find out the exact cause and to do the right treatment. You need a dermatologist consultation. Please discuss with your doctor for this.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
