My son is 9 years old and all of the sudden he has developed a large bald spot on his head ( it is about the size of a silver dollar). He takes Concerta for ADHD and i am worried about that because he just had a EKG that came back abnormal. I am still waiting on the doctor to call back and make an appointment. Should i be worried?
He does not pull his hair out. He has often said that his scalp tingles and itches. And i have checked him for head lice and it is clean.
Hair loss in children?

He probably has TTM. Thrichtilliomania. Do some research.
If the spots are in the size of a quarter and has a smooth surface. Check out the images in the website below, if its similar then it must be Alopecia Areata.
My bro managed to find a website called http://www.ALOPECIA-AREATA-CURE.com when he had the same problem that explains about the condition and suggests treatment. He gave it a try and to all our surprise he recovered.
Its quite informative. You might want to give it a try. Wish you a quick recovery
