White patches on toes
I have white patches on 2 of my toes. It doesn't hurt or itch, so I'm guessing it's not athlete's foot and it hasn't spread anywhere else. It looks like I have large blisters on my toes. I've had this for quite sometime (2+ years), any idea what this might be?
Is vitaligo curable ?
Are there some alternative medicine available ?Has it any link with stress or trauma .Kindly explain.
Thanks Doctor.

A blister is filled with fluid, whereas a white patch is flat. I therefore am unsure as to whether you have one condition or two.
If you are referring to one kind of (white) spot, these are possibly loss of pigment called vitiligo. This is common, of no known cause, and of little significance.
I advise you to visit a skin doctor for definitive treatment. You may not learn of any specific remedy, but you'll know what it is and that it isn't contagious.
Best.
