What Does A White Spot On Scalp Indicate?

Hello ,
My baby got a white spot on scalp when she was 2 months old now she is 4 months old. Doctor prescribed nizoral ointment for 10 days but it didn't help. The spot is still there on scalp. May I know the reason for that so that I will be able to take better care for her..
Regards,
Mum.

Hi...it could be a seborrhea of scalp or any other fungal infection.

But, Skin conditions are best diagnosed only after seeing directly. I suggest you to upload photographs of the same on this website, so that I can guide you scientifically.
