Treatment For Children With Vitiligo

Data show that the incidence of childhood vitiligo disease and showed a gradual upward trend, therefore, children vitiligo also became the focus of everyone's attention. However, due to the onset of vitiligo disease of mental state, immune and genetic factors, cause local skin and hair follicle patients melanogenesis a disorder, and the purpose of treating vitiligo is to restore the skin lesions of melanocytes, so that the normal appearance of the skin and functional recovery, the disease may be present, for the treatment of a certain degree of difficulty, especially for children vitiligo treatment.

Vitiligo hospital experts remind the majority of parents friends, when to take the treatment of childhood vitiligo patients should pay attention to the suitability for the treatment of childhood vitiligo disease, let's first take a look at the routine childhood vitiligo treatment method, which is suitable used for the treatment of children:
① trace elements: folic acid and vitamin B12 combined with sunlight therapy. Studies have shown that levels of childhood vitiligo patients blood folate and vitamin B12 are often lower than normal, oral folic acid and vitamin B12 and the treatment of vitiligo local sunlight good effect, but the exact mechanism is unclear.
② immune enhancer: oral levamisole, 100mg / day, 2 days per week, the slow progress of the limitations applicable to the treatment of childhood vitiligo patients, in combination with corticosteroids better. There are also transfer factor, Polyresistin and other immunosuppressive agents, may be used as appropriate.

① surgery transplantation: children is generally difficult to fit the patient;
②PUVA: a certain toxicity of light, children under 12 should not be used;
③ system of long-term oral corticosteroids: long-term use will be systemic or local side effects.

We understand the childhood vitiligo vitiligo treatment by specialists, the child should be clear of vitiligo treatment should adhere to early detection and early treatment, and the difference between treatment principle. Parents for their children's growth changes must be closely watched. For children vitiligo disease, early detection and early treatment to early treatment can achieve good therapeutic effect, after it will not give their children leave a bad physical and psychological impact.

Causes depigmentation of vitiligo melanin

Many patients have been unclear how they are suffering from vitiligo, has been kept in the dark, our hospital experts to answer your questions at: Vitiligo is because of their melanin reduction, depigmentation of melanin in the skin tyrosinase activity decreased or absolute lose, to interpret why vitiligo melanin depigmentation. Melanin depigmentation of vitiligo cases simply because the body into tyrosine is not sufficient, to be added to food through tyrosine remedy.
Tyrosine is not just black melanin predecessor and also thyroid hormones and catecholamine predecessor. Hyperthyroidism revealed that melanin production messy, can be interpreted as a result of increased dairy consumption in the process of nitric acid formation of thyroid hormones, so the skin concentrations of tyrosine liquid loss, depigmentation of skin melanin content decreased tyrosine It reported.
Tyrosine oxygen into two by phenylalanine (DoPa) melanin is the first one links. Oxygen is in the process of Moet neuraminidase - under copper phenol enzyme utility purposes of this enzyme in turn DoPa of oxygen. Some people think that, because UV mapping SH group of oxygen and motivate melanin calm. But many people find SH group content of the lesion in the skin are not increased, also normal.
To animals without food can melanin depigmentation copper, trace elements such research vitiligo which is a push. Vitiligo blood checked clear and depigmentation of melanin in the skin of patients with decreased copper content, copper content increased melanin calm this time around four bands. Clearly, copper ion melanin depigmentation lesions within inadequate can affect the activity of tyrosinase. However, application of copper preparations treatment does not solve the problem. Utility sulfhydryl (SH) includes a blocking function of tyrosinase in the copper ions, thus restricting the activity of the enzyme.

Thus, motivate melanin depigmentation of vitiligo, generated from a chain of vitiligo melanin all known aspects of the activity or the copper content of tyrosinase only more or less deliberated. Up to now there is no exact content of such a material made of vitiligo patients phenylalanine and tyrosine melanin predecessor, the patient can be more understanding of vitiligo knowledge.

What Are Causes of Segmental Vitiligo

Segmental vitiligo, a subtype of vitiligo, is characterized by its early onset, rapid stabilization and unilateral distribution. The reported prevalence of segmental vitiligo ranges from 3·5% to 20·5% of all patients with vitiligo. In generalized vitiligo there is accumulating evidence for an autoimmune response against melanocyte self-antigens. In segmental vitiligo the underlying mechanism is still controversial.

Segmental vitiligo, the most common type of vitiligo, is thought to be an autoimmune condition. This means that your immune system (the body’s natural defence system) does not work properly.

Instead of attacking foreign cells, such as viruses, your immune system attacks your body’s own healthy cells and tissue.

If you have non-segmental vitiligo, your immune system destroys the melanocyte skin cells that make melanin.

Vitiligo is associated with other autoimmune conditions, such as an overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism).

You may be at higher risk of developing non-segmental vitiligo if:

someone in your family has it – around 20% of people with vitiligo know another family member who has it

you have a family history of other autoimmune conditions – for example, one of your parents has pernicious anaemia (an autoimmune condition that affects your stomach)

you have another autoimmune condition

you have melanoma (a type of skin cancer) or cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (a type of cancer of the lymphatic system)


you have particular changes in your genes that are known to be linked to non-segmental vitiligo

Can Vitiligo Be Cured Completely

Vitiligo is an auto immune disease. It is familial in only a very small percentage of cases. Vitiligo is a common disease of skin disease .
Many vitiligo patients have this question - Can Vitiligo Be Cured Completely ?
Vitiligo is a skin condition in which a loss of melanin causes irregularly shaped white patches in the skin. These patches often grow in size. It is not known what causes vitiligo, and there is currently no permanent cure. There are numerous treatments, however, that may slow or stop the progression of skin depigmentation, as well as treatments that may even return some color to the affected skin.

Modern medical system has no cure for vitiligo. The system offers different kinds of lotions, creams, ointments and other vitiligo makeup to hide the patches or make them less noticeable but can neither stop the spread nor can cure vitiligo effectively. The laser treatments offered by modern medicine may also give only temporary relief, not permanent cure from within.
Herbal Treatment system has the capability to cure vitiligo effectively provided the practitioner understands the mechanics involved. Simply prescribing the medicines is not enough. Vitiligo needs careful management and treatment for permanent cure.

PUVA therapy combines a medication called psoralen with UVA ultraviolet light treatments. The psoralen is given in pill form or applied topically and makes the skin sensitive to light. With biweekly treatments for at least a year, PUVA therapy has a 50 to 70 percent chance of returning color to the skin (except on the hands or feet). Side effects of PUVA include sunburn, freckling and an increased cancer risk.

White Patches on Skin and Vitiligo

Some patients see white patches on skin that appear on their skin, and they ask themselves, exactly what are they, and exactly what is the cause for them to appear?These white patches on skin are called vitiligo ,
Vitiligo is a skin condition which causes white patches on the skin. It is a chronic (long-term) condition in which occurs the destruction of melanocytes (cells responsible for making pigments). The areas of skin affected have very little or no melanin and this is why they are white in colour. Melanocytes in the skin, mucous membranes and the retina can be affected, meaning that patches can develop on various areas of the body. In most cases the hair which grows within patches of affected skin also become white.

Symptoms and signs of vitiligo
The major symptom of vitiligo is white patches on the skin (depigmentation). Patches tend to develop in areas that are most exposed to the sun, such as the arms, legs, lips, hands, feet and face. Other general areas include the armpits, groin, navel (tummy button), genitals, eyes and mouth.
There are three main patterns of depigmentation. The first, known as focal depigmentation, is restricted to a single or small number of areas on the skin. The second, known as segmental pattern, occurs when patches develop on a single side of the body. The third, known as general pattern vitiligo, affects many sections of the body and is the most common type of vitiligo.
Additional symptoms of vitiligo include premature greying of the hair on the scalp and beard, as well as the eyelashes and eyebrows. People who have darker skin may also notice that the tissue within their mouths appears lighter.

Causes of vitiligo

Surprisingly, the causes of vitiligo are yet to be precisely established, but most of the research so far points to the following:
An autoimmune disorder - the patient's immune system becomes overactive and destroys the melanocytes2
Genetic oxidative stress imbalance
A stressful event
Harm to the skin due to a critical sunburn or cut
Exposure to some chemicals
A neural cause
Heredity - family link
A viral cause.
Vitiligo is not transmittable; in other words, it is not contagious, people cannot catch it from each other.
Less than 1% of the population are affected by the appearance of vitiligo in their skin.3 It has no age, sex or ethnic discrimination, but studies have concluded that a larger percentage of cases seem to start around the age of 20.

Vitiligo signs and symptoms vary considerably from person to person. It is more pronounced in people with dark or tanned skin. Some may only acquire a handful of white dots that develop no further while others develop larger white patches that join together affecting larger areas of the skin.

Types of Vitiligo

Vitiligo is a skin conditionin which a loss of pigment causes the skin to appear white (depigmentation). Irregular white patches may occur on any area of the body. Due to the difference between the affected and unaffected areas, this condition is more visible in people with darker skin. It affects 1% to 2% of the population and can affect anyone.

Vitiligo is classified into the following types:
Non-segmental vitiligo (NSV)
Subtypes are focal, mucosal, acrofacial, generalised, universal.
White patches are often bilateral and symmetrical.
Overlaps with other conditions which have known aetiology and are not classified as vitiligo.
Segmental vitiligo (SV)
Subtypes are focal, mucosal, uni-, bi- and pluri-segmental.
Rapid onset.
Unilateral.
Distribution may approximately match a dermatome.
Involves hair follicle depigmentation.
Mixed vitiligo (NSV + SV)
This is rare.
Unclassified

This category allows for a period of time of observation, after which a definitive classification can be made.

Natural Herbal Chinese Medicine Treatment for Vitiligo

Vitiligo is a condition that causes the loss of melanin from your skin. Melanin is the pigment that is responsible for the color of your skin, eyes and hair. Vitiligo manifests when your melanin-producing cells die or no longer generate melanin, which causes white patches of skin to appear in the affected area. Natural herbal treatments may be helpful for your vitiligo. However, herbs should only be used under the care of a skilled health care professional.
Skin Disorders states that the precise cause of vitiligo is unclear, although evidence points toward a group of three genes that make you vulnerable to depigmentation. The most common sign or symptom associated with vitiligo is milky-white skin patches, although other symptoms -- premature graying or whitening of your hair, loss of mucous membrane color, and color changes or loss in your retina -- may also occur.
Natural herbal chinese meidicine treatments for vitiligo , notes nutrition researcher Phyllis A. Balch, author of "Prescription for Nutritional Healing." Katuki is an herbal remedy that is commonly prescribed for vitiligo by practitioners of ayurvedic medicine, which is the traditional healing system of India. St. John's wort is used to help reduce the negative health effects of stress, while ginkgo may help retard the vitiligo disease course. Many non-herbal supplements may also be helpful in treating this condition, including vitamin B complex, essential fatty acids and silica.

Foods Natural Treatment for Vitiligo
Here is a list of the best Vitiligo natural treatments and home remedies diet that I’ve found along my journey, all of which have shown remarkable results and were easy to implement.
Goosefoot
Goosefoot is a type of vegetable with lots of medicinal properties. It contains high traces of vitamins and minerals, along with a rich concentration of protein and folic acid. In addition to eating this vegetable at least once a day, you can also extract the juices from the leaves and apply it directly to all the white areas on your skin.
Papaya
Papaya is great for reviving and restoring melanin (which is responsible for skin pigmentation). In addition to drinking papaya juice every day, I would also:
Rub the affected areas of the skin with a piece of papaya fruit.
Allow it to dry, before applying it again to make sure that the juice is properly penetrating the skin.
Psoralea Seeds
Psoralea seeds soaked in ginger juice is great for “replicating” the effects of sun tanning, and it is perhaps one of the best natural home remedies for the treatment of vitiligo.
Soak the seeds in the juice of ginger for 3 days.
After 3 days, rub the seeds with your hand to remove the shell.
Allow the seeds to dry in a shaded area, and then have it grounded to a powder.
Every day, take 1 gram of this powder with fresh milk. Do this for about 40 days straight.

You can also apply some of the powder to the affected areas for quicker results.

Foods Heal Cure For Vitiligo

Vitiligo is the result of a loss of melanin in your skin. Melanin is the pigment that gives skin its color. When you have vitiligo, you will lose the normal color of your skin, resulting in the formation of white patches that will slowly enlarge. This occurs as melanocytes, the cells that produce melanin, die or stop producing the pigment.

Foods High in Vitamin B-12
Eating foods high in vitamin B-12 may help reverse vitiligo. A study published in the "Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis" in 2011 indicates that a vitamin B-12 deficiency leads to an increase in homocysteine, a compound that may play a role in destruction of pigmentation in certain areas of the body. Choose foods such as liver, clams, trout, salmon, haddock and yogurt to boost your vitamin B-12 intake. Fortified breakfast cereals are also a good source of vitamin B-12.
Foods High in Folate
The same study that correlated a vitamin B-12 deficiency with incidence of vitiligo also implicated low folate levels in this condition. While evidence in the April 2010 edition of the "Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology" indicates that some forms of light therapy can manipulate folate levels for those with vitiligo, you can also boost your intake through diet. As with vitamin B-12, you can get more folate from enriched breakfast cereals, but you may also get it naturally in black-eyed peas, spinach, asparagus and broccoli.
Foods High in Vitamin C
Including foods containing vitamin C in your diet may be good for vitiligo. Citrus fruits such as oranges, grapefruits and lemons are excellent sources of this vitamin, but other fruits high in vitamin C include kiwi, strawberries and cantaloupe. You can also get vitamin C from vegetables such as tomatoes, broccoli, potatoes and red and green peppers.
Foods High in Zinc

Boost your consumption of foods high in zinc when you have vitiligo. A study in the "Indian Journal of Dermatology" in 2009 suggests that zinc supplementation may help cure this condition. Oysters are an excellent source of zinc, although you may also acquire zinc from beef, crab, pork, lobster and chicken. You can also boost your intake of zinc by eating beans, nuts and dairy foods.

Food To Avoid Vitiligo

Vitiligo is a disease that can be embarrassing and difficult to treat. Marked by a lack of pigment in patches of skin, it can affect any part of your body, but common sites include the face, hands, armpits, hair and around body openings. Your physician may recommend traditional therapies, although the National Vitiligo Foundation suggests that nutritional deficiencies may contribute to the condition. Work with your health care provider to incorporate vitiligo-fighting foods into your diet.

Vegetables and fruits on top
Antioxidants, phytochemicals, beta carotene in these bounties of nature support your immunity, promote healthy skin and may aid in the pigmentation process. Antioxidants and beta carotene neutralize free radicals and protect against their damage.
The major antioxidant nutrients are vitamins A, C, E, folic acid, polyphenolic flavonoids and some minerals like selenium, copper and zinc. Apples, bananas and citrus fruits are some great choices and must be included in your vitiligo diet. However, blueberries and pears should probably be limited or avoided as they contain natural hydroquinone, which are de-pigmenting agents.
Eating your vegetables lightly cooked and closer to raw is most preferable as it preserves their nutrients.
 Never let your Vitamins go
A couple of research studies across the globe have discovered that vitiligo patients may have vitamin deficiencies, especially of the B12 vitamin and folic acid.
You can replenish your body by eating vitamin-rich foods. Vitamin B12 is found in meat, poultry, eggs, soy milk, dairy products, fish, and shellfish. Folate, the natural form of folic acid, is found in fruits, dried beans and green vegetables. Ensure that you get enough vitamin D and C as they’re essential for healthy skin.
You can get vitamin D naturally from moderate sunlight exposure as directed by your doctor. Moreover, foods like oily fish, cod liver oil, liver, milk, eggs, cheese, margarine, some milk powders and yogurts and some cereals are fortified with it. Citrus fruits are your go-to option for ample vitamin C. Studies have shown that Folic acid and vitamin B12 work in conjunction with vitamin C to aid in the pigmentation process.
Must Minerals. Copper, iron, zinc and calcium all play a role in the pigmentation process
Higher levels of zinc and copper have been shown to reduce premature greying hair. Low levels of both these minerals along with reduced iron levels have also been found in de-pigmented skin. Iron also has a role in the activation of tyrosinase which is an enzyme requiring copper and is essential in the pigmentation process. Zinc, an important mineral can be found in beef, shellfish, nuts, and legumes. Calcium, found in dairy products is another important nutrient for overall healthy functioning of your body which will ultimately impact your skin in a positive way.

What you can avoid
Turmeric, used as a seasoning in Eastern foods especially, has been shown to cause problems for some people, so you might consider limiting or avoiding its use.
