What is the Performance of Vitiligo's Early Onset?
It is not entirely true that vitiligo is a skin disease that is easy to diagnose and difficult to treat. For some early or atypical cases, many experienced dermatologists find it difficult to diagnose, because at the very early stage, the depigmentation of the added white patch is light and the demarcation line with the surrounding normal skin is blurred, but this early white patch has its special features:
1. The early vitiligo patients' initial onset will be only white patches, no itching pain, and other symptoms. The patient's local appearance is of nearly round white patches, white patches without scales, smooth surface, light white color, and clear boundaries.
2. The early onset of vitiligo is limited and develops only at a certain nerve segment of the patient's body. The depigmented patches are relatively few, usually, only 1-2 patches and most appear on exposed areas of the skin. If patients do not have timely treatment, adjacent white patches can fuse to form large patches, and sometimes the white patches can end up mixed with normal skin, which people often mistake for pigmentation, this should be noticed by the patients.
3. In addition to pigment loss, the skin at the depigmented patch is the same as the surrounding skin, without inflammation and other changes. The early symptoms of vitiligo onset for some time will gradually have new symptoms show. Some new white patches of vitiligo patients will have a slightly elevated inflammatory dark red edge, this symptom is easy to be ignored, and easily affect the diagnosis of vitiligo. When exposed to ultraviolet light, the white patches are prone to burn redness, which brings a great impact on the patient's body and mind.
For those who are difficulty clarifying if it is vitiligo for a while, don't just use medication first, you should cooperate with your doctor, and regular follow-up observation, to clarify the diagnosis early and take corresponding treatment measures in time.
The earlier the vitiligo is treated the easier it will be cured, and in the early stage of vitiligo, the condition is lighter, the white patches area is smaller, and there may be a lot of patients who do not care very much, wait until the white patches spread to think about treating this disease, and vitiligo spreads to increase the difficulty of treatment. You need to find out the cause of the disease before it's too late, and have a scientific, standardized, and targeted treatment.
