Pityriasis alba

I-Pityriasis alba sisifo esiqhelekileyo solusu lweziqwengana zemibala ekhanyayo (hypopigmented).

Isizathu asaziwa kodwa sinokudibaniswa ne-atopic dermatitis (eczema). Esi sifo sixhaphake kakhulu kubantwana nakwishumi elivisayo. Kuqapheleka ngakumbi kubantwana abanesikhumba esimnyama.

Iindawo ezinesikhumba (izilonda) zihlala ziqala njengombala obomvu kancinci kunye namaxolo anamaxolo ajikelezileyo okanye okweqanda. Zihlala zibonakala ebusweni, ezingalweni eziphezulu, entanyeni, nakumphezulu womzimba. Emva kokuba ezi zilonda zihambile, iipatches zijika zibe mibala-khanyayo (hypopigmented).

Iipatches azenzi lula. Ngenxa yoku, banokuba bomvu ngokukhawuleza elangeni. Njengoko ulusu olujikeleze amabala amnyama mnyama ngesiqhelo, amabala anokuvela ngakumbi.

Umboneleli ngononophelo lwempilo uhlala echonga imeko ngokujonga eluswini. Uvavanyo, olufana ne potassium hydroxide (KOH), lunokwenziwa ukulawula ezinye iingxaki zolusu. Kwiimeko ezinqabileyo kakhulu, kwenziwa i-biopsy yolusu.

Umboneleli unokucebisa ngezi ndlela zonyango zilandelayo:

• Isithambisi
• Amafutha amancinci e-steroid
• Iyeza, elibizwa ngokuba zii-immunomodulators, lisetyenziswe kulusu ukunciphisa ukudumba
• Unyango ngokukhanya kwe-ultraviolet ukulawula ukudumba
• Amayeza ngomlomo okanye ngokudubula ukulawula i-dermatitis, ukuba ibuhlungu kakhulu
• Unyango lweLaser

I-Pityriasis alba ihlala ihamba yodwa ngamabala abuyela kumbala oqhelekileyo kwisithuba seenyanga ezininzi.

Amachaphaza anokutshiswa lilanga xa evezwe kukukhanya kwelanga. Ukufaka i-sunscreen nokusebenzisa olunye ukhuselo lwelanga kunokunceda ukuthintela ukutshiswa lilanga.

Fowunela umboneleli wakho ukuba umntwana wakho unezixhobo zolusu olwenziwe utyando.
