Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear that. For such queries, it's best to attach photos of this.
Are these patches elsewhere too? Does he have any health issues you've noticed? This seems like a pigmentation problem but I would recommend showing this to a child/skin specialist just to get expert advice.

For further consultation, you can choose from our list of best Pediatricians in Lahore and seek in-person advice.
