Why do white spots spread and become more and more in summer?

First, avoid strong light. In summer, the sun shines directly on the ground with high intensity, which is easy to cause skin inflammation after exposure, especially in exposed parts such as head and face, which often leads to the damage of melanocytes and loss of the ability to produce melanin. However, vitiligo patients should actively and moderately cooperate with sun exposure, and the sun exposure time should be adjusted with the seasons. For example, in autumn, winter and early spring, the sun should be tilted around noon, and the time for sunbathing can be longer. In late spring and early summer, the sun shines directly on the ground, especially in the morning and evening. If you choose noon, you can irradiate through the glass window for a shorter time and more times, which can reduce the damage of strong sunlight to the skin and help to play the therapeutic role of long-wave ultraviolet rays.

Second, keep a good attitude. Hot weather can make people fidgety, irritable and forgetful. These are mainly because in the hot summer, people's sleep and diet are reduced and sweating is increased, which makes the electrolyte metabolism in the human body appear obstacles, affects people's brain nerve activities, and thus produces abnormal emotions, moods and behaviors. This kind of emotion lasts for a long time and is prone to cardiovascular disease. Once the above situation occurs, we should pay attention to relaxing ourselves and adjust ourselves by reading books and listening to music. If the effect is not obvious, you can accept counseling from a psychologist and change your cognitive style.

Then, make sure the skin is clean and hygienic. In summer, the weather is hot, people's clothes are reduced, and a lot of perspiration makes the skin easy to breed germs. Patients need to clean their skin frequently to ensure that the skin is clean and refreshing. Change clothes frequently. When washing clothes, pay attention to washing with clear water many times to avoid residue of washing powder and irritate the skin.

In summer, vitiligo patients need to pay attention to many things. Only by strengthening self-prevention awareness and cooperating with doctors' treatment can we effectively control the disease and spend the spring and summer safely.
