Skin problems
I am 34 year old male and have become bald recently. My wife noticed these red and white patches on my scalp which I am not sure what they are. I did have severe dandruff and was one of the reason to go bald.
Also, the second picture belongs to my 4 year old son and he has developed these little pimples (dont know what these are called) on his hand, legs and between fingers.
I would be grateful if someone could help us on this. Thanks
