Vitiligo is a loss of skin pigment that causes white spots or patches to appear on the skin. No one knows exactly why this happens, but it affects people of all races, many of them kids and teens. Because vitiligo affects a person's appearance, it can be upsetting. But it isn't medically dangerous.
Headaches can be one of the most debilitating side-effects of a cold or flu. According to a recent clinical trial that evaluated people with cold and flu symptoms, more than 60% of those polled experienced headaches related to their illness. When youâre on the go, even sunlight and movement can cause sensitivity, making it difficult for busy parents to get through the day.
As these headaches are typically very short lived (usually five minutes at the most), there is generally not much to do other than avoidance. It can also be helpful to cover exposed areas of the head and neck when venturing into cold weather. In addition to earmuffs, wear a hat and scarf.
