Is leukoplakia contagious
summary
Recently, I don't know what's going on. There are some white spots on my face, and I don't have any skin care allergy. I went to the hospital to check for leukoplakia, and I don't know if it will be transmitted to others. Later, I treated it, and the situation was better. In order to prevent this situation, I'd like to introduce the possibility of infection of leukoplakia.
Is leukoplakia contagious
First: leukoplakia is not infectious, leukoplakia is due to local melanin significantly reduced or missing caused by skin, mucous membrane and hair pigment loss changes, does not have pathogens, so leukoplakia is not infectious. But there is a certain genetic probability, but more related to the environment, such as life, diet and many other aspects.
Second: the occurrence of leukoplakia is not caused by infectious pathogenic factors (bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, spirochetes, etc.) and does not have pathogens. It is a non infectious disease caused by a variety of factors. Therefore, leukoplakia is not infectious and belongs to non infectious disease. Direct contact with leukoplakia patients will not lead to the occurrence of the disease.
Third: infection refers to a parasitic process in the human body after the pathogen invades the human body. The main condition of infection is pathogen. Leukoplakia is due to local skin melanin metabolism disorder caused by decolorization changes, does not have pathogens, no source of infection, therefore, leukoplakia is not infectious.
