Hi all,
I realized that my son's vitiligo patches are likely related to skin physical stress. Most of his patches are in places that have hard bone pressure / contact behind the skin, like: ankles, knees and finger tips.
Roughly speaking, it seems that the bone behind "squashes the skin" and, in a certain way, stresses and kills melanocytes physically. He plays a lot of soccer and can't keep his hands relaxed (always drumming around), what exactly matches with his ankles and hands patches.
Does anybody have any suggestion about it?

Some times you cant do any thing about it let children live there life til a good treatment comes which will be soon.
