Suggest Treatment For Vitiligo
Hi, I fairly sure I have the condition Vitiligo, although I have never been to see anyone about it. I am 22 white male and have blochy pale patches on my hand and on some parts of my body, also some hair coming out white. It has become more noticeable in recent years. Is there any actions/ precautions I should take? Thanks.
