Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Child Having White Patches On Temple, Turns Pink Due To Sweat, Heat And Dust. Have Itching. Sun Allergy?
My son is ten years old. Since his infancy he is having two white plain patches on the left temple just adjacent to the left eye. I have tried skin specialists and homeopaths, but the mark does not seem to disappear. He starts itching when he sweats and sometimes it turns pink due to excessive sweat, heat and dust. The skin specialist told me it is sun allergy and I was asked to apply an ointment which I did. It did lighten as long as I used the ointment but has again come back. What do I do Sir? Kindly suggest
I will go by the description provided by you and the doctors' opinion mentioned by you as the best opinion can only be given after a clinical examination of your son. As there was no improvement either by the treatment provided by the dermatologist and homeopaths I would tend to agree by the view of sun allergy. You should continue using the ointment provided to control this allergy.
I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.
