Symptoms of leukoplakia?

summary

The early and late symptoms of leukoplakia are different. The number of leukoplakia in the early stage of leukoplakia is small, which is mainly limited to a certain part of the body. The leukoplakia in patients with segmental leukoplakia is distributed in a certain ganglion segment or skin segment, but it will be relatively serious in the late stage of leukoplakia. So what are the symptoms of leukoplakia?

Symptoms of leukoplakia?

1、 Halo nevus leukoplakia halo nevus, also known as centrifugal acquired leukoplakia, also refers to the localized hypopigmentation around the nevus, after the nevus itself can fade and skin lesions continue to develop. Most scholars believe that halo nevus is a type of leukoplakia, which should be paid enough attention to.

2、 In the early stage, the discoloration degree of leukoplakia is light, and the demarcation line between leukoplakia and surrounding normal skin is blurred. If it occurs in people with white skin, it is easy to be ignored, but its "special" points should be observed in subtle places: generally, there is no itching, even if there is, it is very slight; The number of decolorization spots is small, generally 1-2 pieces, and most of them appear on the exposed skin; Except for depigmentation, the skin at the decolorization spot is the same as the surrounding skin, without inflammation, desquamation or atrophy; In the absence of other skin diseases, early leukoplakia should be considered first.

3、 The typical white spots are round, oval or irregular in shape, which can be expanded or fused into irregular large pieces with different shapes. The pigmented bands around the white spots and island like pigmented spots in the center of the white spots. The other typical white spots are banded or cord like pigmented spots distributed along the nerves, The edge of the class is as neat as a knife.

matters needing attention

In the early stage of leukoplakia, because the color of leukoplakia is lighter, and some even cannot be distinguished by naked eyes, the boundary between leukoplakia and normal skin is not obvious. In the late stage of leukoplakia, the pigment on the edge of the skin lesions will be significantly deepened, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding normal skin, and the leukoplakia is very obvious.
