Vitiligo: Vitiligo is an auto-immune disease that causes loss of skin colour in patches. The discoloured areas usually get bigger with time. This condition can affect the skin on any part of the body. It can also affect the hair and the inside of the mouth. Symptoms include patchy loss of skin colour ( which usually first appears on the hands, face, and areas around body openings and the genitals), premature whitening or greying of the hair (on your scalp, eyelashes, eyebrows or beard), loss of colour in the tissues that line the inside of your mouth and nose (mucous membranes). Causes of vitiligo are family history (heredity) and a trigger event such as stress, severe sunburn or skin trauma.
