What are the early symptoms of vitiligo

Vitiligo is a common skin disease that is quite harmful, difficult to treat, and stubborn. Medical investigations have found that timely detection of early symptoms of vitiligo can help with timely treatment, and the effect of such treatment is often more optimistic. In the early stages of vitiligo, there will be light white symptoms and certain desquamation. As the disease progresses, it will spread.

1. The color of early vitiligo is light white

The disease occurs locally in a small area, or in a few spots. It poses little threat to the patient and is often neglected. However, the white spots of vitiligo will spread as the skin loses melanin. The color of the white spots will turn into pure white, and the area will also increase and spread to the surrounding areas. The white spots of vitiligo are generally protruding from the surface of the patient's skin, and the patient can also observe them.

2. Symptoms of vitiligo are not self-conscious

There was no scaling or atrophy on the patient's skin. It is a smooth white spot disease on the skin, which is an important feature of vitiligo. The white spots are generally painless and itchy, but if the skin is stimulated by adverse environmental factors, itching, redness, swelling, or other symptoms will occur. Especially if the patient's skin is exposed to ultraviolet rays for a long time, the above symptoms will appear, so you should pay attention to protection.

3. The borders of white spots in the progressive stage of vitiligo are not obvious

However, as the disease progresses, not only will the boundaries of the white spots be clear, but vitiligo will also appear in irregular round or oval shapes distributed on the patient's skin. It has serious harm to the patient's appearance. Vitiligo also has different stages of onset, and the symptoms in each stage are different, so it is important to pay attention to professional testing.

How do the symptoms of vitiligo manifest themselves? The above is a brief introduction to this issue. Patients should pay attention to it, do a good job of prevention in life, and strive to recover as soon as possible. However, it is important for patients to go to a professional treatment hospital, use professional testing equipment, and conduct professional tests to find out the specific cause of the disease.
