What is the cause of white spots on the chest

Most of the white patches on the chest may be localized depigmentation patches formed by lichen planus. After lichen planus develops due to fungal infection, a certain inflammatory reaction occurs, and when these inflammatory reactions subside, white patches will appear on the chest, and sometimes these white patches will be accompanied by some bran-like scales. In addition to lichen planus, it may also be white pityriasis, which may also have white scales on its surface, but is not a fungal infection. In addition to this, of course, it may also be a depigmented spot caused by other reasons, such as local inflammation formed after acne, which fades to a depigmented spot. It may also be vitiligo, which is a limited white patch formed due to local melanocytes, which cannot produce melanin.
