What are the symptoms of vitiligo on the head?
Vitiligo has numerous causative factors, including diminished immune function, genetic predisposition, copper deficiency in the body, or localized trauma. Vitiligo commonly manifests on the scalp as white, patchy areas of skin, and the hair attached to these patches may also turn white. In some cases, the affected area may gradually expand, spreading to the face or the trunk of the body. Once white patches are observed on the scalp, and the hair in these patches turns white, it is strongly suspected to be vitiligo and should be medically treated at a dermatology department in a reputable hospital. If the affected area is small, complete recovery is possible with proper treatment. During treatment, it is important to exercise regularly and boost the immune system.
