i have been using my headphones 7/24 for the last 9 years. Presently, i noticed white patch (circle in shape-the size of 5 cents) on my ear lobs (both left and right) and it it looks getting wider. I wander what it is, could it be the side effect from the long time and long hrs usage of my headphone or bacterial infection or something else in total. I need to know the why or what?
HelloThanks for posting your query. HelloThanks for posting your query. It does seem to be post inflammatory hypo pigmentation due to constant friction of the headphones. The best treatment for it would be application of tacrolimus ointment. That will slowly help in regaining the color. It will require a prescription. However, it would be best to consult your dermatologist as its always better to examine the lesions and then diagnose it. Take care
