I'm absolutely freaking out!
There is this little area just below my left eyebrow (not the main eyebrow, the part under it where stray hairs grow and I get them threaded). I've noticed since the past 4 weeks or so that some of the stray the hair that grow in that area are completely white.
I'm 26, so I haven't yet started getting white hair anywhere else on my body.
I'm really stressing because I read that this can be a symptom of vitiligo . My aunt has vitiligo and I know the cause can be genetic so I'm extremely anxious. I don't have any actual skin discolouration( some pigmentation, but I've always been prone to that)
I won't be able to visit a doctor until at least anther 3 weeks (long story), but in the meantime I'm going to have sleepless nights worrying about this.
Has this happened to anyone else? Am I worrying over nothing? Any doctors/GPs here that can put my mind at ease until I can actually go visit a specialist to get this clarified?
