What is the situation when there is a white spot on a child's body?

Patient's question:

A child has white spots on their hands that have recently reappeared. What kind of help is needed: Some people say this is vitiligo. Where do children's vitiligo generally reappear?

Doctor's answer:

The onset location of vitiligo is not fixed; it can occur on any part of the body. If the white patches are not confirmed as vitiligo, it is advisable to get checked to determine if it is indeed vitiligo. Appropriate measures should be taken based on the type of vitiligo. If vitiligo is diagnosed, oral Baoling tablets and compound glycyrrhizin tablets should be taken. Tacrolimus ointment should be applied externally to the face, while Baoling tincture should be applied externally to the neck. Daily personal hygiene and dietary habits should also be paid attention to.
