What is vitiligo?

Vitiligo is a pigmentation muddle in which the cells that endow the skin with the color are shattered which results in white patches that from time to time start appearing on the skin as well as in diverse parts of the body. Parallel patches also become visible on both the mucous membranes which are tissues that line the inside of the mouth and nose, and the retina. The hair that grows on areas affected by vitiligo sometimes turns white. It is a circumstance in which white patches develop on the skin. Any location on the body can be affected, and most people with vitiligo have white patches in a lot of areas of the body.
