Hello Friends! I am Dr. Umesh Bilewar. I am consultant dermatologist and hair transplant surgeon from Ozone Care Clinic. Today I am here to discuss vitiligo. So, let's understand the basic things about body. Immune system of our body which plays a very important role in protecting us out from threat. It may in form of infection or outside injuries. It protects us from threats which are internal to body like something is happening in growing proportion. Our body has different organs with different functions. Same as skin is called as the largest organ of the body. Now coming to the vitiligo. Our immune system start acting against our body. This can also happen in case of other organs also. If the immune system starts reacting against pancreas then it may lead to diabetes. If it is against thyroid so, it can lead to hypothyrodism. Similarly, because of various reasons like genetics, oxidative stress or infection or in most of the cases, reasons are unknown. It starts acting against the cells of skin. It leads to loss of pigment in your cell which leads to patches on our body which is called as vitiligo. Now every white patch is not a vitiligo. It is presents in animals also. Cows, buffaloes even plants like roses are in different colors because the lose of pigments. Similarly, in human population, it is in good number. It is not a disease. It is just that the immune system is acting against the body. It is a disorder. It is the attitude of society at fault. Human with vitiligo are perfectly fine. Their body functions are fine. We don't have to differentiate. They are doing fine in their life. So, the treatment, it is definitely treatable. Various options are available for treatment. For any doubt, you can contact us through Lybrate. Thank you.

Vitiligo

Hello friends! I am Dr. Umesh Bilewar, consultant dermatologist and hair transplant surgeon from Ozone Care Clinic, Seawoods. As rainy season is here, I am here to talk about most common problem of rainy season that is fungal infection. This is known by different names. So why it is happening? Why it is there? Actually most important factor in case of fungal infection is moisture. You must have seen fungus growing on damp walls. You might have seen fungus growing on breads which are staying outside for few days because those catch moisture actually. In human body there are certain areas which are moisture prone like groin area because of sweating and another another skinfold which are prone for moisture. These moisture prone areas tends to grow few fungal elements and in rainy season it is more because our clothes tends to get more wet often. We tend to wear damp clothes actually. So because of these factors and because of overall damp environment we have more amount of fungal infections in this season. What to do about it? The most important factor is to take care of the moisture part. You have to make sure that things are dry at all these places. We have to make sure that you are wearing dry clothes only. Second thing is treat fungal infection to the earliest. Don't wait for it to progress further. Third important thing is don't self medicate yourself. Don't buy medicine on your own from pharmacy because most of those contains steroids and if you apply those you will get a temporary relief but what's going to happen is after sometime as soon as you stop the medication the fungus is going to grow further and it will increase in the size and it will increase in severity and if you continue these medicine for longer duration of time it is going to have side effects like stretch marks. Fungus can become less responsive to medication and all. So it is very important that you should not self medicate. 4th important thing is consult a proper dermatologist having a proper recognised degree. Another important thing is you should take proper course prescribed by your Dermatologist. don't leave the course in between that will also need to recurrence of the fungal infection. That may also lead to the resistance of the fungus. Take care this rainy season. This is Dr. Umesh signing off. For further information you can contact us on our website. Thank you!
