Advantages of vitiligo in winter: First of all, because in winter, the activity of pathogens such as bacteria and viruses is weak, during this period, vitiligo is more effective, and the probability of exogenous infection is reduced, which is conducive to avoiding post-infection and greatly reducing the recurrence of vitiligo. Moreover, in winter, the mobility of the human body is relatively reduced, and the pace of life is relatively slow, which is conducive to freeing up more time to pile up vitiligo together, and the patient's compliance is good and makes it smoother, which has a great effect on the later stage; Secondly, due to the reduced time of exposure to the sun, the damage caused by exposure to ultraviolet rays is naturally less; Finally, because after the human activity is reduced in winter, the frequency of autonomous and passive hyperemia of skin cyst tissue cells is also reduced, which is more conducive to vitiligo lesions, and due to the relatively slow release of the disease, it can greatly reduce the psychological anxiety of patients, which is conducive to the help of vitiligo.
