from your history it appears to be leukoderma. is it present in any other part of your body. thinking it Tobe leucodermaointment psoraline is to be applied and part exposed to-sunlight for 5 second and gradually duration increased to 1minute. sunscreen lotion may be applied around the area. be careful not to touch eye with it. since there is reaction with sunlight. if is more red or painful then stop it. slowly coloration will return.
