summary

I found that my mother-in-law recently grew a lot of white spots on her back, arms and legs, and the size and shape of these white spots are not the same. Only after going to the hospital did she know that she had vitiligo. Let me tell you what the common symptoms of vitiligo are.

What are the common symptoms of vitiligo

First: the early stage of leukoplakia is the appearance of white spots on the skin, and the edge of white spots often has a slightly elevated inflammatory dark red. This kind of leukoplakia can last for several weeks, and its changes are mostly asymptomatic, so it is easy to be ignored. For general leukoplakia, just appeared, if the boundary is fuzzy and no hyperpigmentation, it is difficult to attract attention.

Second: in addition to white spots, white hair is also an early symptom of some patients with leukoplakia. In the early stage of leukoplakia, the number of leukoplakia is variable, and it can be found in a certain part of the body or a certain ganglion segment (or skin segment) step by step. The white spots of leukoplakia will not disappear, but become more and more serious with the passage of time, thus turning into the late symptoms of leukoplakia. 　

Third: in the late stage of vitiligo, white spots increase to the size of nails or coins, or even larger. With the continuous increase of white spots, white spots will eventually merge into one piece. When the whole body turns white, leukoplakia is already very serious. Patients with early symptoms of leukoplakia should actively go to medical institutions for consultation. In the late stage of leukoplakia, the treatment is more difficult.

matters needing attention

Vitiligo is a common skin disease in our life. Patients will have a lot of white spots after they get sick. Patients must be treated in time after they are found. When they are treated, they should pay attention to go to professional and regular hospitals for examination and treatment, and don't blindly believe in the so-called university medicine.
