What are the symptoms of leukoplakia

First, irregular white plaques of different sizes, single or multiple, the area of white plaques gradually expanded and the number increased. Generally speaking, the boundary between white spots and normal skin is clear, but if it is in the progressive stage, the edge of white spots can also be blurred, and some can appear around the white spots with a color boundary between normal skin and white spots.

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.

A few cases have local itching before the onset of the disease, and some patients have itching feeling due to some reason when the condition is stable, and then the white spots are enlarged or new white spots are exposed, and some patients have hair whitening.
