Question
I’ve noticed a patch of skin that has turned white on my child’s face and would like to understand the reasons for white spots on children’s faces during the summer and seek relevant assistance.
Answer
There are many factors that can lead to vitiligo, such as hereditary factors, autoimmune system issues, environmental factors, trauma, excessive sun exposure, and certain photosensitive drugs. The first step in treating vitiligo is diagnosis, followed by the development of a treatment plan and the adoption of different treatment methods based on the specific condition. It is advised not to treat vitiligo blindly to avoid exacerbating the condition. No matter what disease is being treated, it is essential to first identify the cause and then proceed with targeted treatment.
