What Is The Treatment For White Patches On Face Of Child?
Dear Doctor,
My daughter has 2 white patches on her face. This was due to lack of Vitamin D. Due to medication Vitamin D deficiency is now cured. However the patches are still not healed. She is under homeopathic treatment since last 2 years.
Kindly advice.

One of the commonest cause of white patch is likely to be worm infestation in gastro-intestinal tract, the lesion is known as Pityriasis alba.
Antihelminthic drugs may be beneficial.
