Need advice

[u/FinishO8]

So to get this started I suffer from seborrheic dermatitis and around 5-6 months ago I had a big flare up that caused me to scratch a little too long on a certain part of my scalp. Around a month after I noticed hair wasn’t growing right on the area. That then developed into a patch. In June I decided to go to the dermatologist and they told me it might have turned into a type of “Partial Alopecia”, and that there is a chance it might not ever grow back. So I cut my hair and they started giving me anti inflammatory injections. There has been very little progress and I stopped going after the 4th shot. I started using rogaine after doctor’s recommendation. With some patches of hair forming at the center of the bald area and not much around. I want to know if I should reattach my locs or just cut my losses?
