Will pityriasis alba spread?

Pityriasis alba is a common skin disease. The main causes of pityriasis alba are vitamin deficiency, congenital maldevelopment, and lack of sebum protection, which will lead to the appearance of pityriasis alba on the skin. Generally, the treatment of pityriasis alba does not prevent infection, so pityriasis alba is not contagious, but it will spread as the disease worsens.

Pityriasis alba cause

1. Vitamin deficiency can cause white pityriasis in babies.

2. The baby's sebaceous glands are not fully developed, and the epidermis lacks the protection of sebum. If you do not pay attention to moisturizing the baby's facial skin, white pityriasis is likely to occur.

3. Sun exposure and dry skin can also induce pityriasis alba.

How to treat baby's pityriasis alba?

1. This disease will mostly heal on its own. Since the baby's skin is delicate, it is not recommended to use medication to treat the baby on your own.

2. Pay attention to moisturizing the baby's facial skin and apply appropriate moisturizer suitable for children to the baby.

3. The time it takes for vitiligo to fade away varies from child to child. Some may take a few months, while others may take one or two years or even longer. However, it usually does not last into adulthood. If the child's symptoms are particularly obvious, some medications can be used for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

1. You should eat more vegetables and fruits, have a balanced diet, and ensure the intake of vitamins.

2. Keep your baby's face clean and moist, and never use strong alkaline soap to wash your baby's face.

3. Take sun protection measures for your baby when outdoors and avoid direct sunlight.
