If your child has small white spots on his skin, be alert to this disease!

Children's skin is very smooth and tender, but careful parents may accidentally find small white spots on their children's bodies. They should consider skin diseases or vitiligo. Usually, teenagers with vitiligo will show white spots on the skin, pigmentation, and neurological nodules in one or more parts of the body. The white spots will expand after being exposed to ultraviolet rays. If the white spots do not change after being exposed to ultraviolet rays, other diseases may be considered.

What are the symptoms of vitiligo in adolescents

Symptoms 1. Early symptoms of vitiligo in adolescents: Sometimes normal skin remains in the white spots on the skin, which may be mistaken for pigmentation. For example, white spots appear on the face and are often mistaken for chloasma.

Symptom 2: Symptoms may be limited to a certain part of the patient's body or distributed in a certain nerve segment of the patient. There are very few vitiligo patients whose white spots disappear on their own. In most patients, the white spots tend to gradually increase and expand. Adjacent white spots can merge with each other to form irregular large patches, spreading throughout the patient's body like a map.

Symptom 3: Symptoms of early vitiligo include slightly raised inflammatory dark red edges on the affected skin, which can often last for several weeks, and most of the changes have no conscious symptoms.

Symptom 4: When the white spots of vitiligo in adolescents first appear, they may sometimes appear as proliferations with blurred boundaries and no pigmentation.

By understanding the early symptoms, you can identify vitiligo in time, detect vitiligo in time, and go to a professional vitiligo hospital to treat vitiligo in time. In addition, early vitiligo is the best period to treat vitiligo, so don't miss it.
