Diseased Hair
Ringworm and Eczema are common diseases of the hair. Ringworm usually affects children, in which one or several round-shaped well-defined grayish colored patches appear on the scalp, having thin hair broken off almost at scalp level. This scalp disease is caused by a certain type of fungi.
The contagious disease has two main groups: the Shearing Ringworm and the Favus Ringworm.
