Advanced lesions are grayish-white fluorescent with ill-defined boundaries when UV light is performed.

    In the stable phase, it is bright blue-white fluorescence, with clear borders, and pigment islands or marginal pigmentation can be seen;

    2. Pityriasis simplex: common on children's face, characterized by dry fine pityriasis scaly hypopigmentation, varying in size, slightly clear boundary, and can be covered with fine scales. Wood lamp irradiation examination showed that the patient** had hypopigmentation in the vitiligo, and did not show bright white fluorescence;

    3. Pityriasis versicolor: It is more common in young and middle-aged men, and is more likely to occur in the face, neck, chest, shoulders, armpits and other parts with abundant sebaceous glands, manifested as a punctate macules centered on the pores and clear boundaries, with more scales on the surface, and the fungal microscopic examination is positive;

    5. Non-pigmented nevi: most of them have localized light pigmentation at birth or shortly after birth, which will last for life;

    6. Senile leukoplakia: It is a kind of senile ** degeneration, manifested as a round or oval leukoplakia the size of a needle tip to a mung bean, which is more likely to occur on the trunk and limbs, and can be clearly diagnosed clinically through tissue biopsy and other examinations.

    Vitiligo is a relatively common acquired pigmented disease that manifests as a localized or generalized** complete loss of mucosal pigment. It is caused by the loss of melanocyte function, but the mechanism is not clear. It can occur in all parts of the body, and young women are the majority.

    1.The doctrine of genetics.

    Vitiligo can occur in twins and families, indicating that genetics plays an important role in the pathogenesis of vitiligo. Vitiligo has been suggested to have incomplete penetrance and multiple pathogenic loci in the gene.

    2.Autoimmune Theory.

    Vitiligo can be combined with autoimmune diseases, such as thyroid disease, diabetes, chronic adrenal insufficiency, pernicious anemia, rheumatoid arthritis, malignant melanoma, etc. Specific antibodies to various organs can also be detected in serum, such as anti-thyroid antibodies, anti-gastric parietal cell antibodies, anti-adrenal antibodies, anti-parathyroid antibodies, anti-smooth muscle antibodies, anti-melanocyte antibodies, etc.

    3.Psychiatry and Neurochemistry Doctrine.

    Psychiatric factors are closely related to the onset of vitiligo, and most patients have mental trauma, excessive tension, depression or depression at the onset or development stage of the lesion. Degeneration of nerve endings at the vitiligo also supports the theory of neurochemistry.

    4.The theory of self-destruction of melanocytes.

    People with vitiligo can produce antibodies and T lymphocytes, suggesting that the immune response may cause the destruction of melanocytes. The toxic melanin precursors synthesized by the cells themselves and some chemicals that cause ** decolorization may also have a selective destructive effect on melanocytes.

    5.Lack of doctrine of trace elements.

    In patients with vitiligo, the level of copper or ceruloplasmin in the blood and ** decreases, resulting in a decrease in tyrosinase activity, which affects the metabolism of melanin.

    6.Other factors.

    Vitiligo can also be induced by trauma, sun exposure, and some photosensitive drugs.

    There is no significant difference in the gender of vitiligo, and it can occur in all age groups, but it is more common in adolescents. The lesions are depigmented patches, often milky white or light pink, with a smooth surface and no rash. The boundaries of the vitiligo are clear, the pigment at the margins is increased compared with normal**, and the hair in the vitiligo is normal or white.

    Lesions are more likely to occur in areas of sun exposure and friction injury, and the lesions are mostly symmetrically distributed. Leukoplakia is also often arranged in bands according to the distribution of nerve segments. Vitiligo is often accompanied by other autoimmune diseases, such as diabetes, thyroid disease, adrenal insufficiency, scleroderma, atopic dermatitis, alopecia areata, etc.

    Prophylaxis. 1.Reduce the intake of contaminated food, correct picky eating, and formulate scientific dietary recipes.

    2.Reduce the inhalation of harmful gases, and choose a place with fresh air during morning exercise or exercise.

    3.Pay attention to labor protection.

    4.Be aware of the pollution caused by the renovation of the house.

    5.Keep a good mood.
