5 year old white hair

[Anonaeee65]

Just found a white hair on my daughter whose 5. I have seen it/another one a few times now but I just assumed maybe a thread or something else so dismissed it. I’m looking at one now and it’s white and is a strand of hair. Do I need to worry? Tried calling doctor since this afternoon but as usual not getting through

It's so sad that, in the UK, we would rather take risks with our children's health then contact the GP (that we pay for) to be on the safe side, just because we are so petrified of "wasting their time". I didn't realise what a pitifuk state the NHS was in until I realised that people in other countries don't ever do this - they don't take risks and the doctors never make them feel like they're wasting their time. I'd go to the GP for ANYTHING if it worried me, you are right to, OP. Just because some people arent cautious doesn't mean you're wrong to be.

You'd be less likely to bother your doctor over petty nonsense if it cost you £400 a pop. Let's see someone whinge about a white hair then.

It's just a very pale blonde hair, or yes golly, perhaps a white hair, and OP has clearly lost the plot.
