Not to worry. Let me help you out.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thank you for posting your query.
I can understand your concern.

It would have been great had I examined the white patches on my own.

Let me ask you a few questions.
1. Is there any lack of sensation over the patches?
2. Were the patches all present from the beginning? Or have they increased progressively?

White patches can be due to
- Leprosy
- Vitiligo
- Lupus vulgaris
to name a few.

For treatment of leprosy , there are drugs like rifampicin , clofazimine (Multidrug therapy for paucibacillary or multibacillary leprosy)

FOr vitiligo there are treatment modalities like Psoralens and UVA also called photochemotherapy , steroids and other drugs called immunomodulators.

I would suggest you to post some pictures.

I would also suggest you to visit a dermatologist. He/she can examine you and correlate clinically.


Hope this helps.
Post any other question.
Regards.
