Will Hair Grow Back At The Site Of Injury On Head?

My 9 year old son hit his head a few weeks ago. There was a knot on his head that went away fairly quickly...now I ve noticed he has developed a bold spot about the size of a nickle where the knot was at. Will his hair grow back? Will the bapld spot get bigger? Help please.

Hello,

If the wound is superficial and not that much extensive, it will grow back. If the hairless patch persist, you can seek help from a dermatologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
