What is the main cause of vitiligo?

Genetic factors: Everyone may have heard that vitiligo has a certain genetic probability. If the immediate family members are vitiligo patients, their offspring are slightly more likely to get sick than those from healthy families. The genetic probability of finding vitiligo is about 3%- 15%. People with genetic factors should pay attention to developing healthy living habits and stay away from the stimulation of bad factors.

Sun exposure factors: ultraviolet rays are harmful rays, and reasonable sun exposure is beneficial to health. However, if the skin is exposed to direct sunlight or even for a long time, the melanin in the skin will be excessively lost, and exposure will lead to skin inflammation and even sunburn, thus increasing the incidence of vitiligo.

Traumatic factors: frequent skin injuries, such as knife wounds, scalds, frostbite, surgical injuries, etc. If these wounds are not treated correctly in time, vitiligo will also be induced. Trauma will lead to homomorphism of vitiligo, damage the melanocytes in the skin, affect the normal synthesis of melanin, and thus induce vitiligo.

Dietary factors: the lack of trace elements in the human body is also a common cause of vitiligo, which is mainly related to everyone's daily eating habits. If picky eaters, partial eclipse, and food are not balanced, the nutrients in the human body will not be fully supplemented, resulting in the lack of trace elements, especially copper ions, which will increase the possibility of vitiligo.
