Hi,
welcome to health care magic forum,
white patches on skin have many reason, it is very difficult to say anything without having a look at the patches, it is better u show them to any physician in your city or u can send us your photos at info@drkackerhomeopathy.com or visit us at www.drkackerhomeopathy.com

Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum
Is there any other symptoms like itching, dryness, scaling?
If not , this could be vitiligo.
You can visit a dermatologist or a homeopath for the treatment.

Hi!Deepak Kishor,
Welcome To HealthcareMagic forum,
Deepak if the patches are milky white then it is vitiligo..or if it is just a color lighter than the original color then it can be tenia versicolor.And i hope that the sensation over the patch are normal.For vitiligo you can use any mild steroid cream topically .You can apply melanocyl sol (diluted) over it and expose to sunlight for few minutes.If the patch is spreading or if you are getting new patches then you also need oral steroid to stop the progression.Kindly consult a dermatologist for proper treatment.
take care,
Dr.chawda
