summary

My mother-in-law recently had some white spots on some parts of her body, but she didn't feel any pain or itch, and there were not many white spots, so no one cared about it. Until later, she found that there were more and more white spots, and went to the hospital to check it out. Now let's talk about how to recognize the early symptoms of leukoplakia.

How to recognize the early symptoms of leukoplakia

First: in the early stage of leukoplakia, most of the patients did not feel itchy. Even if they had it, it was mild. It was easy to be despised by the patients and thought it was a small problem. In the early stage of leukoplakia, the number of leukoplakia is very small, generally only a few pieces, and most of them are scattered in the diseased parts, and the area is not large, most of them appear on the skin of the exposed parts of the body. It is easy to be ignored by patients.

Second: the onset of leukoplakia has a process. At the early stage of the onset, the color of leukoplakia is lighter, and there is little difference from normal skin. In addition to depigmentation, the skin of leukoplakia is the same as normal skin, and there is no inflammation, scaling or atrophy. So many patients will not pay attention, think it's no big deal. Lead to leukoplakia missed the best opportunity for treatment.

Third: most of the lesions (i.e. leukoplakia) develop slowly and gradually after the onset. The initial state of leukoplakia gradually increases in the primary part, and new lesions can appear in other parts from February to May. There are also a small number of patients with skin lesions limited to local, non-proliferation, that is stable. There are also a few patients with rapid spread, short-term endothelial damage that spread to the whole body, rapid spread of more mental factors, there are also some patients due to improper treatment and lead to the development of the disease.

matters needing attention

In the early stage of leukoplakia, there are few white spots on the patient's body, and the area is also very small, the color is relatively light. Gradually, the number will be more and more, and the color will be deeper and deeper, and the boundary with the surrounding normal skin is more obvious. When the disease is serious, the sweat hair at the white spot will become white. Patients with these conditions must go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.
