What elements does vitiligo lack

summary

My parents did not have vitiligo, but two years ago, after my body was injured, some vitiligo gradually grew up. In the past two years, I took a lot of drugs to treat this disease, and vitiligo was still under control for the time being. Many people have such confusion that they know what the cause of vitiligo is. What elements are lacking in vitiligo? Now I'll explain it for you.

What elements does vitiligo lack

First, vitiligo is due to zinc deficiency. Studies have shown that the zinc content in melanosomes is high. It is suggested that zinc plays an important role in the synthesis of melanin. In traditional Chinese medicine, the cause of vitiligo is mainly due to blood heat, wind heat, external wind evil, beating on the skin, long-term heat, disharmony between Qi and blood, stagnation of heat, qi stagnation and blood stasis, leading to blood heat and wind heat; or liver qi stagnation, external wind evil, accumulated in the skin, disharmony between Ying and Wei, qi stagnation and blood stasis, meridian block; or liver and kidney deficiency, disharmony between Qi and blood, skin dystrophy. Western medicine believes that the cause of vitiligo is unknown, and that endocrine disorders, diet, drugs, heredity, sunlight, mental nerve and chemical stimulation, autoimmunity and other factors can lead to the disease.

Secondly, excessive UV exposure will also aggravate vitiligo, UV exposure. Ultraviolet exposure can increase the toxic substances in patients' melanocytes, accumulate a large number of intermediate products in the synthesis of melanin, and cause damage to melanocytes; on the other hand, ultraviolet exposure can also cause hyperfunction and excessive consumption of melanocytes, and reduce the synthesis of melanin. Lead to aggravation of the disease!

Finally, vitiligo can be detected etiology, with the development of science and technology, technological progress, I believe that more about the treatment of vitiligo technology will appear, treatment and prevention of vitiligo will become easier. Etiological analysis of vitiligo through clinical research, the common causes of vitiligo can be divided into: genetic factors, autoimmune dysfunction, neurotransmitter factors, secretion and metabolism factors, endocrine disorders, human lack of copper, zinc trace elements, environmental pollution factors.
