R<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Alopecia areata is the second most common presentation of non-scaring alopecia and is usually a reversible condition that is characterized by patchy loss of hair without atrophy. It may at least affect anyone or more hair area. Its severity goes and prognosis is unpredictable. It affects males and females equally but is common in children and young adults.<\/p>\n<p>The site of involvement may involve all hair-bearing areas of skin and is observed on the scalp. Hair is rapidly lost in circular or oval patches or, less commonly, may be diffuse involving the scalp<\/p>\n<p>May include facial or body hair<br \/>\nMay be episodic or persistent<\/p>\n<p>In alopecia disease may be limited only to the beard, in which case it is called<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlopecia areata barbae&#8221; usually starts\u00a0as one or more small,\u00a0round bald patches on the beard (\u00a0often along the jawline).\u00a0These\u00a0can get bigger and in a small number of cases can progress to total hair loss. The hair\u00a0usually grows back within a year without any treatment but not always sometimes people\u00a0with alopecia\u00a0areata barbae\u00a0lose\u00a0their hair again.<\/p>\n<p><u>Causes &#8221; <\/u>It is an auto immune disease modified by genetic factors aggravated by emotional stress.<\/p>\n<p><u>Genetic Factors<\/u><br \/>\nalthough\u00a0some of the cases have positive family history of about 20%, some\u00a0others found it to be very less or more. HA studies tend to confirm the\u00a0heterogeneity\u00a0of disorder in identical twins, alopecia\u00a0areata\u00a0occurs simultaneously in same site.<\/p>\n<p><u>Auto Immunity<\/u><br \/>\nAlopecia areata is found to be associated with certain endocrine disorders whose cause is said to be auto immunity. Although the attempt to demonstrate autoantibodies in serum with patients with alopecia areata failed, its occurrence with the following conditions makes the suspicion of the presence of autoimmunity. Those disorders are diabetes mellitus, Addison&#8217;s disease, vitiligo and Down syndrome. Some patients with alopecia totalis or universalis the autoantibody level have significantly increased for which the explanation remains unsatisfactory.<\/p>\n<p><u>Symptoms<br \/>\n<\/u>Hair loss is sudden in onset can take within a few days, or over a few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Bald patches occur in small circular patches about the size of a quarter. As more hair is lost, these circles will sometimes begin to overlap. Hair around the edges of these patches may also be white.<\/p>\n<p>Your skin may feel itchy and painful before you lose your hair. Usually, the visible skin is smooth, though it can feel rough. Some people experience redness, irritation, and inflammation in bald spots.<\/p>\n<p>Examination findings &#8211; hairs narrower at the bottom, sometimes grow in and around the bald patch.<\/p>\n<p>CONCLUSION- Alopecia areata barbae can also be treated with homoeopathy by sector approach.
