Patient's question:
By chance in the summer, I noticed that my child's eyebrows had turned white. It doesn't hurt or itch. What kind of help do you need: Discovering why my child's eyebrows have turned whiteDoctor's answer:
The early symptoms of vitiligo are generally asymptomatic, appearing as porcelain-white patches of varying sizes, shapes, and numbers on the skin, with clear boundaries. These patches can occur on any part of the body. If they appear on the scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes, or other areas, the hair in those regions may turn white. Vitiligo is divided into remission and stable phases. During the remission phase, the patches expand and continue to increase in number, with blurred boundaries. You can also visit a regular hospital's dermatology department for a thorough examination to rule out the possibility of vitiligo. Wood's lamp examination and skin CT scans can be performed.
