In most cases, you should visit the dermatology outpatient clinic at a hospital, where a physician can perform an examination for you. If the condition presents as patchy lesions, additional tests—such as a gentle traction test or dermoscopy—may be required. Some patients may also undergo blood tests to assess for potential vitamin deficiencies or other related conditions.
