What are the symptoms of early vitiligo

summary

I have a friend with vitiligo for a long time, he is in treatment every day, but the recovery of the disease is very slow, which I am very worried about, so now I will introduce the symptoms of early vitiligo.

What are the symptoms of early vitiligo

First: in the early stage of vitiligo, most patients do not have any conscious discomfort, and the white spots are not painful and itchy. Only a few patients will have mild itching or discomfort at the beginning. The lesions of vitiligo are light sensitive, that is, the skin will be red after sunlight irradiation, and there will be erythema, blisters and burning pain after exposure to the sun. At the same time, vitiligo has the same form of reaction, that is, skin inflammation or local trauma will begin to appear or lead to the expansion of white spots.

Second: vitiligo lesions depigmentation, the formation of white spots or plaques, generally round, oval, can also be irregular. The size of leukoplakia varies, the surface is smooth, the initial pigment does not disappear completely, and the boundary between leukoplakia and surrounding normal skin is blurred. In the later stage, the lesions became larger and the pigment disappeared completely, and the white spots were more obvious, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding skin.

Third: vitiligo lesions can involve all parts of the body, more common in the face, limbs, chest, but also visible in the genitalia and perianal. Most of the white spots are symmetrically distributed, and some of them are arranged along the ganglion segment. The lesions can be limited to a certain part of the body or distributed in a certain ganglion segment. However, the number of white spots in most patients is increasing and expanding, and even generalized in severe cases.

Vitiligo symptoms of this disease is more obvious, but because it is a skin problem, many people think it is not a big problem, so did not pay attention to, but it is often because of these carelessness lead to more serious disease, so we must be vigilant when we find the symptoms.
