Suggest Medicines For Vitiligo
need clarifications for Ayurveda Management
Detailed Answer:
Dear
Thanks for contacting Ayurveda with your concern.
1. please mention about the duration of the disease?
2. any family history of the same or autoimmune disease [opinion of doctor or examination done]?
3. Any exposure to industrial/environmental toxin?
4. Is vitiligo generalized, localized or segmental??
5. has vitiligo occurred or progressed from last time or has stopped spreading?
6. since Vitiligo has no permanent cure, but management & treatment may help to stop or slow the discoloring process and return some color to the skin.
PS. since the condition is not contagious but important from cosmetic point of view as the appearance can be stressful to the patient thus the management improves the appearance of affected skin but does not cure the disease.
