'Cunningham's White'

Cunningham's White refers to a skin condition characterized by the development of white or hypopigmented patches, often resulting from a reduction or loss of skin pigmentation. It is commonly associated with conditions such as vitiligo or other immune-mediated disorders where the skin’s melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) are damaged or destroyed. These patches may be symmetric or localized, and their appearance can vary from mild to extensive. Understanding Cunningham’s White involves recognizing its clinical presentation and underlying immune or genetic factors, which can aid in diagnosis and management of the condition.
