Pityriasis Alba or white patches on face is a common condition especially in children with dry skin it is much more common if the child is suffering from eczema, dust allergies, sneezing or wheezing. Number three, it is much more common when the child is exposed to sunlight after a sports day or when children are in vacation or after playing outside. Number four, it is differentiated from vitiligo, were vitiligo is basically depigmented patches while P. Alba is hypopigmented patches. Number 5, Pityriasis Alba does not require team but in cases where it is looking very bad or where parents are very concerned, we can go for medication
