A 5-Year-Old Girl Got More Than 70% Recovery From Vitiligo With Homeopathy
Vitiligo: A skin disease that causes a loss of skin color in blotches. Vitiligo occurs when pigment-producing cells die or stop functioning. The loss of skin color can affect any part of the body, including the mouth, hair, and eyes. It may be more noticeable in people with darker skin.
Vitiligo results due to the lack of a pigment called melanin in the skin. Melanin is produced by the skin cells called melanocytes, and it gives your skin its color.
A 5-year-old female patient, Ms. M.P. visited Life Force Homeopathy with the complaints of Vitiligo on 27th November 2019. She had hypopigmented patches for 3 months and they were progressive. Vitiligo spots were present on her lips (upper and lower both) and fingertips of both the feet and chest.
Her maternal grandfather had vitiligo.
She was a vegetarian and had cravings for sweets. She disliked salty food.
