What are the early symptoms of vitiligo

summary

Some time ago, my best friend came back after traveling abroad for a long time. As a result, when she came back, she developed allergic symptoms, and the symptoms became more and more serious, even some white spots. After going to the hospital for examination, she learned that she was suffering from vitiligo. Today, let me talk about the early symptoms of vitiligo.

What are the early symptoms of vitiligo

First, the skin of vitiligo showed that the epidermal melanocytes and melanocytes were significantly reduced or absent. The number of melanocytes positive for DOPA staining in basal layer decreased or disappeared. The skin lesions are local depigmentation spots, often milky white, or light pink, with smooth surface and no rash. The white spot boundary is clear, the edge pigment increases compared with the normal skin, and the hair in the white spot is normal or white.

Second: leukoplakia is often arranged in strips according to the distribution of ganglion segments (or skin segments), which is unilateral. In addition to skin damage, labia, labia, glans and inner prepuce mucosa are often involved. Leukoplakia may spread throughout the body, but the melanocytes in the retina, choroid and pia mater are not involved. In winter, there is depigmentation in the center or edge of the white spot.

Third: limited type: leukoplakia single or gathered in a certain part. This is the initial stage of vitiligo symptoms. In the initial stage of vitiligo, due to the small area of vitiligo, and the melanin production system in the lesion area has not completely lost its function, vitiligo can be cured by medication and other treatment methods. Sporadic: leukoplakia scattered, different sizes, but more symmetrical distribution, the total area of leukoplakia does not exceed 50% of the body surface area.
