Hair Disorders

Alopecia Areata

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition that leads to sudden, unpredictable hair loss. It can affect both men and women and may result in small, round patches of baldness on the scalp or other areas of the body.

Androgenetic Alopecia

Commonly known as male-pattern baldness or female-pattern baldness, this hereditary condition causes gradual hair thinning and loss, typically along the top of the head.

Nail Disorders

Fungal Nail Infections

Fungal infections of the nails, known as onychomycosis, can lead to thickened, discolored, and brittle nails. Prompt treatment is essential to prevent further damage.

Ingrown Toenails

This condition occurs when the edge of a nail grows into the skin, causing pain, redness, and potential infection. Proper treatment is crucial to prevent complications.

Psoriasis of the Nails

Psoriasis can affect the nails, causing changes in color, texture, and shape. It may also lead to pitting or separation of the nail from the nail bed.

Treatment Options

  1. Topical Treatments: Depending on the specific disorder, topical treatments such as creams, ointments, or solutions may be recommended.
  2. Oral Medications: In some cases, oral medications may be prescribed to address underlying causes or manage symptoms.
  3. Laser Therapy: Certain laser treatments can effectively address fungal nail infections.
  4. Surgical Interventions: For severe cases or specific nail disorders, surgical procedures may be considered.
