A member asked:
I noticed a spot on the back of the head of my 14 years old son without hair round about 1 cm should i waitfor the hair to grow back by itself ?

No, check it out.: This may be a fungal infection, such as ringworm, or a different type of scalp infection. It may also be idiopathic - a symptom with no obvious cause. In any case it should be looked at by your family doctor or a dermatologist.
