White patches on my face

2017-06-10 17:05:07
I have small white patches on my face. I had them when I was 5 or 6 years old but when I consulted my doctor they said it was lack of calcium. And now recently for past 3-4 months they've appeared again. An Ayurvedic doctor had told me that my body isn't absorbing the food that I'm eating. Pls help

?pityriasis alba!, As the history given by you, it's may be due  to atopy(allergies) , usually present on the face with hypopigmented (light white patch) with dryness. So, use albendazole 400mg only 1 tab stat. Pimicrolimus 1% cream topical application. Better once consult a dermatologist for further treatment or evaluation.
