What about uneven skin color in baby?

Infants are a group that is more susceptible to illness, and are also a group that is easier to detect and treat in a timely manner. This requires us to have enough patience to take care of the baby. There are many symptoms that may occur during infancy, including high fever, uneven skin color and other problems. Why do babies have uneven color and how should this symptom be treated?

There is no necessary connection between white spots on children's faces and intestinal parasites. Someone observed 1,650 patients with white spots on their faces and found that the false positive rate of parasitic infection was as high as 70%. That is to say, 70% of children with white spots on their faces do not have worms in their stomachs. Therefore, it is unreliable to diagnose ascariasis based solely on "worm spots". The diagnosis of whether a child is infected with ascariasis can only be based on stool test results or the detection of ascariasis in the stool.

It may be vitiligo or pityriasis alba, which may be caused by malnutrition. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination and diagnosis.

Opinion and suggestions: In the early stage of vitiligo, the white spots are slightly depigmented and the boundary with the surrounding normal skin is blurred. If this happens in people with fair skin, it is often difficult to make a timely diagnosis. Observe carefully whether the surface of the white spots is smooth and free of dandruff. The white spots are light white or milky white. If the boundaries are blurred or spread towards the normal skin, it may be vitiligo. Vitiligo often manifests with the following symptoms: 1. There is usually no itching, and even if there is, it is very mild. 2. The number of depigmented spots is small, usually only 1-2, and most of them appear on exposed skin.

3. Except for the loss of pigmentation, the skin at the depigmented area is the same as the surrounding skin, without any changes such as itching, desquamation or atrophy. 4. Early vitiligo should be considered first when there are no other skin diseases. There are many types of white spot diseases, including: vitiligo, albinism, tinea versicolor, pityriasis alba, etc. White spots are not necessarily vitiligo, but vitiligo is white spots. Warm reminder: Vitiligo is no longer an incurable disease. To face the disease correctly, it is recommended to go to a regular dermatology hospital for consultation and diagnosis.

From the above expression, we can conclude that the uneven color of the baby's skin has nothing to do with parasites, so there is no need to blindly clean the baby's internal organs. Secondly, uneven skin color may be caused by malnutrition such as vitiligo, which requires us to provide nutritional supplements for the baby and go to the hospital for treatment in time.
