Suggest Remedies For A Habit Of Pulling One's Hair
Hi, my brother is having a very peculiar problem he keeps pulling his hair for no reason. Earlier it was not so prominent but now he looks almost bald. We have tried homeopathy and allopathy treatments but nothing has helped. My brother is in 15 years old. Any help would be appreciated.
I guess it is trichotilomenia means patient has irresistible urge to pull ones hair.
Does he eat hair? if yes then go for surgical opinion.
This kind of condition can be treated with SSRI and tab fuoxetine has excellent results. Psychotherapy and counseling can help also. Habit reversal technique is also beneficial.
