[quote=Anonymous]The thing to understand is trich is a vicious cycle because the pulling makes the scalp irritated and the irritated scalp draws the attention and leads to more pulling. So treating the scalp irritation is part of it but maybe trying hats, giving him other ways to do things with his hands (fidget toys, sometimes having ribbons or silky materials in someone's pockets helps fulfill the feedback needed). Hats are a good option for providing a barrier but for some people they can itchy. So treat the scalp and try to address the pulling.[/quote]
