World Vitiligo Day

World Vitiligo Day, every year on June 25th, commemorates the lives of those with vitiligo. It's also a day to raise global awareness of this skin disease.

Vitiligo is a disease that causes a lack of pigment cells called melanocytes. Melanocytes are the product of a pigment cell loss. Vitiligo has affected up to 1% of the world's population. Although it affects both genders and ethnic groups, it is most noticeable in those with darker skin. People aged between the ages of 20 and 30 are often seen in Vitiligo.

The following are early signs of vitiligo:: :

  • Premature graying of the hair on the scalp or eyebrows.
  • Loss of color on the inside of the mouth..
  • The eye's retina's color has changed to a darker shade

Vitiligo can affect the skin on any part of the body. The skin depigmentation process usually begins on areas exposed to the sun. These body parts include the hands, arms, and face. Vitiligo only affects a few areas of the body for some people. For those people, the pigment loss occurs only on one side of the body. The entire body may be affected by a widespread lack of pigment over the entire body.

Vitiligo only affects the skin. It does not cause stomach pains, but not in the body. However, those with autoimmune disorders are more vulnerable to vitiligo.. Both genetics and environmental causes are believed to be responsible for this skin disease. Although no cure exists, specific medications can help to improve the skin's appearance.
