Hi.
As per your case history of vitiligo, my treatment advice is -
1. Don't scratch the lesion as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a mild topical steroid cream like mometasone cream on the lesions twice daily.
3. Other treatment options are oral psoralen and phototherapy done by a dermatologist.
Thanks.
