Husband has this spot that appeared out of nowhere and the doctor won’t do anything and says it’s just “stress”. How can we find out if it’s AA?
My husbands barber randomly found this patch on his head one day and we have no idea what the cause is, but the doctor said it’s just “stress” and nothing to worry about even though my husband keeps saying he’s not under any increased stress? His diet and sleep etc are also fine.
Does anyone have any advice for how to get a doctor to take us seriously? He’s very concerned because the spot just keeps growing, and it’s frustrating to have no idea what it is or get any help beyond a vague answer of stress and being told to “go to bed earlier” (he sleeps at literally 10pm). Obviously if this is alopecia we want to know, and if it’s not we also want to know so we can treat the alternative!
