Patient's question:
At the age of four and a half, white spots appeared again on the neck. At first, I didn't pay much attention, thinking they would go away quickly. But after a few months, the white spots started to spread. My son didn't feel itchy or painful. What kind of assistance is needed: What are the symptoms of vitiligo in children?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of children's vitiligo are: patients with vitiligo will notice white patches on their skin, but the skin in these areas remains normal in structure, and there are no itching or other symptoms. They are particularly noticeable in sun-exposed areas, including hands, feet, arms, legs, face, and lips. Other common areas where white patches often reappear include the armpits, groin, around the mouth, eyes, nostrils, navel, and genitalia.
