What do white patches on the chin mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends.: Scaly white patches can be due to eczema, or contact or other types of dermatitis . Smooth white patches can be due to vitiligo (areas where melanin is absent). See a doctor to sort out the cause and discuss treatment options with you.
