My 10 year old daughter Has a white line discoloration in her skin going up and down her left arm. On one side of the white line the skin is darker and on the other side is lighter. This is a sudden onset within the last week. Should I be concerned what are some possible causes.

There may be chances of leukoderma, where discoloration of skin may seen due to lack of melanine secretion. Mostly it becomes spread with time. Should go fir consult to dermatologist
