What are the symptoms of vitiligo

summary

Recently, I saw two pieces of white spots on my daughter's face. At first, it was a very light color. If I didn't look carefully, I couldn't see them. But later, it seemed to grow bigger and darker. I went to the hospital to check for vitiligo. Today, let me and you learn about the symptoms of vitiligo.

What are the symptoms of vitiligo

Symptom one: no itching, even if there is a very slight. The number of discoloration spots is small, generally only 1-2 pieces, and most of them appear on the skin of the exposed parts. In addition to depigmentation, the skin at the decolorization spot is the same as the surrounding skin, without itching, desquamation or atrophy.

Symptom 2: the affected area of vitiligo is generally not painful or itchy, and the patient has no conscious symptoms, even if there are, it is relatively mild. The hair on the affected area can be normal or white. Leukoplakia if long-term ultraviolet radiation, there will be red, itching, blistering, and even burning pain and other feelings.

Symptom 3: the surface skin of leukoplakia is smooth, without desquamation and scab, and the color is light white. With the development of the disease, the color gradually deepens to cloud white, porcelain white, milky white, etc., and the boundary with the surrounding skin is clear.

matters needing attention

Although the onset of vitiligo is manifested as the appearance of white spots on the external skin, it is actually caused by the internal factors of the body, so when treating, we should find out the specific causes of the disease, and we should not treat it blindly, which will only lead to the aggravation of the disease.
