What disease does the child have when there are white spots on the face and sometimes stomach pain?

Patient's question:

All symptoms: Good appetite, frequent bowel movements, constant stomach pain before bedtime
Onset time and cause: Treatment status: Desired help: Want to know the cause and how to treat it

Doctor's answer:

White piedra and vitiligo are different. Vitiligo is different. The skin affected by vitiligo has no pigment, so it appears very white and the boundary between it and normal skin is very clear. The surface is also without scales, and it does not necessarily occur on the face. If a child has white piedra, parents should not panic first. It is important to first maintain the cleanliness of the child's face and avoid using soaps with strong alkali. After washing, you can apply some soft cream containing silicone oil or 5% sulfur ointment. If the child feels some itching in the affected area, you can also use Compound Connales ointment to apply. In some cases, the white piedra on a child's face may naturally improve, but the color of the affected skin may still be slightly lighter than the surrounding skin. Besides affecting appearance, this condition does not have a significant impact on health.
