How To Regrow Hair On Scalp After Putting Alcohol To Stop Itching Due To Ringworm?
My son had ringworm of the scalp in November. He was away at school and didn t know what it was. Him and his friends put alcohol on his scalp to stop the itching. When he came home in February we put him on pills for 4 weeks. Now his hair has not grown back and his scalp has shiny areas with no hair...he looks horrible.
