Patient's question:
Thank you for the doctor's quick answer for me - how to treat and preventDoctor's answer:
Children with vitiligo may face growth issues if not treated promptly. Due to the lack of certain trace metal elements in the blood and affected areas of vitiligo patients, the activity of tyrosinase in the body is reduced, impairing the synthesis and metabolism of melanin, leading to the condition. Therefore, patients should consume more foods rich in metal elements such as copper, zinc, and iron to enhance tyrosinase activity, thereby accelerating melanin synthesis.Advice: There are many causes of this disease, but without knowing your specific details, it's difficult to pinpoint which one applies to you.
