Expanded diagnosis of diseases of hair
Let hair be also not the main body of a human body, but nevertheless they carry out very important esthetic function. But at the same time hair of the person very brittle, there are also many diseases which can seriously spoil their outward and cause the person serious troubles.
Diseases of hair develop at the person in connection with a large number of the different reasons. Diseases of skin and hair of the head lead to intensive loss of hair, deterioration in their outward, problems with integuments. However it is necessary to know that not always display of a severe hair loss conducts to baldness, and also to define some other nuances. To learn what diseases of hair of the head take place in a specific case, it is necessary to address the trichologist. He will be able to carry out adequate diagnosis and is accurate to define what diseases of head skin became the reason of a state of disrepair of hair. The hair illness without the correct treatment can lead to negative effects of which it will be difficult to get rid as a result.
Hair loss
Determining the frequency with which at people diseases of hair are shown, it should be noted that most of people complain to the doctor of their loss. This problem, first of all, is esthetic. But the last concerns a so-called symptomatic (reactive) hair loss, but not baldness. If to consider this disease, the hair loss in this case is result of action of a certain negative factor or their complex. Specialists allocate different types of a hair loss and, considering their features, choose a way of treatment which will help to get rid effectively of a disease of skin and hair.
Not always fungal and other diseases of integuments become the reason of a hair loss. Very often other factors can provoke a hair loss absolutely. So, the seasonal hair loss often falls on the spring and autumn period.
Basic reason in this case — active reorganization of an organism on other natural and weather conditions.
Very often hair begin to drop out actively owing to a serious stressful situation. Owing to the endured shocks in a human body there is a strong emission of hormones and biologically active agents, at the same time vessels and capillaries are narrowed. As a result, to follicles of hair which grow enough nutrients is not delivered. Such hair through a certain span (there pass about two months after a stress) begin to drop out.
Also the postponed illness owing to which body temperature at the patient rose higher than 39 degrees becomes the hair loss reason sometimes. At strong temperature increase there is a protein turning. As a result, the growing hair, having received less it, begin to drop out.
Often women begin to lose actively hair after the postponed abortion. It is connected with very sharp hormonal fluctuations. At the same time during pregnancy hair become more dense, look healthier in connection with increase in an organism of future mother of estrogen. But after the kid is born, estrogen level in a female organism sharply decreases. In several months so-called puerperal loss after the delivery begins. If it proceeds no more than eight months, then no special treatment is required. Except the specified situations with hormonal fluctuations reception of some contraceptives, very rigid diets is connected
Sometimes the hair loss can be connected also with reception of some medicines. But nevertheless loss of hair at women is most often connected with a lack of iron of an organism. Even if hemoglobin indicators at the woman normal, and the content of iron sufficient for functioning of other bodies, for his hair all the same can not be enough. Therefore at a long hair loss women are recommended to make the special analysis. As a rule, at deficit of iron the doctor appoints reception of special drug as the use in food of the products rich with this mineral, in this case does not solve a problem.
Thus, at a symptomatic hair loss it is important to establish the correct diagnosis and to find the reason which provoked this phenomenon. In this case to cure sore hair rather simply. Having established a factor which led to their loss, the doctor makes the decision how to cure sore hair. As a rule, medicines, physical therapy, cosmetic drugs are used. But even if the hair loss does not seem a big problem how to treat and what to do, the specialist has to define.
It is necessary to realize also the fact that coloring or a chemical wave cannot lead to a hair loss. These procedures can affect negatively a condition directly of hair, however they will not begin to drop out from it.
Alopecia
Alopecia it is accepted to call process of baldness. Most often doctors diagnose an androgenic and focal alopecia. The androgenic alopecia is the baldness occurring on man's type. However not only men, but also women have this disease. But if men begin to grow bald in parietofrontal part of the head, then women lose hair on all head evenly. In this case the reason of such phenomenon — disturbance of hormonal balance, high sensitivity
hair follicles to testosterone. As a rule, the androgenic alopecia strikes the person either during puberty, or in the period of a climax. In this case treatment of hair in house conditions is impossible as only the trichologist can understand the reasons of this phenomenon and advise a treatment method.
The focal alopecia is an autoimmune illness which conducts to a hair loss in certain places. Such centers of baldness at the correct approach to treatment can grow with hair completely. Sometimes it is enough to carry out several procedures of the irritating therapy only. However in hard cases not to do without consultation of the immunologist.
The splitting hair
If hair very long (it is more than 20 cm), then they can quite be split on the ends. Such hair grew throughout the long period, and, therefore, were exposed to mechanical and chemical influences. But if hair, length which it is less, then the speech already split goes about the pathological phenomenon. In the course of diagnosis most often it turns out that the major factor which affected a condition of hair is deficit of calcium, iron, proteins, amino acids. At the splitting hair it is important to cut off the split tips and to try to injure hair as little as possible. There is a number of the cosmetics allocated for overcoming of this problem.
Early gray hair
Canities of hair happen at the person as an effect of a lack of a tyrosine organism. Besides, doctors speak about communication of emergence of a gray hair with an anemia, problems with activity of a nervous system and hemadens, a lack of vitamins, and also with long stay under direct beams of the sun. Also it is necessary to consider heredity of the person and influence of some diseases of the virus nature.
Diagnosis of diseases of hair
Accurately to define a condition of hair and to define what reasons provoked specific diseases, the specialist conducts research which is called a trikhogramma. In the course of this research it is carried out studying of a ratio of hair in a phase of an anagen and a telogen. Research is conducted with use of a microscope. Studying the patient's hair, the specialist defines their stage of development, a condition of a sebaceous gland, blood supply and other indicators. At a hair loss the wrong ratio of telogenovy and anagenovy hair is, as a rule, noted.
If the trichologist defined the reason which provoked diseases of hair, the patient is directed sometimes to consultation to other specialists.
Treatment
In order that treatment of hair yielded that result at which the patient and the doctor aims, it is important to provide an integrated approach to this question. Depending on a cause of illness treatment of hair of the head can continue from two weeks to six months.

If the reason of a hair loss or other diseases is the hereditary factor or natural aging, then the special attention should be paid to the choice of a hairbrush (it has to be with rare teeth, from natural material), or to use a brush from a natural bristle. As seldom as possible it is necessary to dye hair and to dry them by means of the hair dryer. The chemical wave can also lead to an aggravation of symptoms of hair. You should not pull together strongly hair, stacking them in a hairdress. If carefully to adhere to these recommendations, treatment of a hair can just not be necessary.
If the problem consists in constant and very severe hair loss, then the doctor can order carrying out transplantation of hair. Also there is a technique of a vpleteniye of hair and nylon threads. At a focal alopecia use of pricks with steroids directly in head skin is possible.
