Skin problem

2019-04-06 21:43:33
My son is four months old now.. when he was two months old a white patch on the tear duct appeared all of a sudden. Now his eye lid is also changing color slowly. Im worried if it might be vitiligo.. how to find out if it is vitiligo or other skin problem?? There are no other white patches on the body.. its only in the eye.. pls help and advise so that we can take proper steps and treat our child accordingly.
