summary

My mouth grew a piece of white spot, at first I thought it was caused by fire, but a year later, white spot grew up a little, sometimes red, let's talk about what white spot looks like.

What does white spot look like

First, the skin lesions of leukoplakia are pure white, round or irregular loss spots, with smooth surface, clear boundary, and increased edge pigment. The whitened skin is more sensitive to sunlight than normal skin, and reddening when exposed to the sun. The course of the disease is slow, and gradually expands to all sides, and stops spreading when fusing with each other or reaching a certain degree.

Second: the hair in white spots can be white, normal or black and white; generally speaking, the surface of white spots is smooth, without scales or scabs, and the sensory and secretory functions are normal. But there are also a few patients feel itchy at the white spot, which can be seen when the white spot develops and takes effect; melanin particles can absorb ultraviolet light, melanin particles in the white spot area reduce, and the white spot is more sensitive to sunlight, and it turns red when exposed to the sun.

Third: the white spot color and the normal skin boundary is obvious. At the initial stage, due to the light color of leukoplakia, some even can't be distinguished by naked eyes, so the boundary between leukoplakia and normal skin is not obvious. At the late stage of leukoplakia, the pigment at the edge of the lesion will be significantly deepened, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding normal skin, and the leukoplakia is very obvious.
