Went to a dermatology office today and the PA was very unconfident with her diagnosis. First it was warts, then after performing a very questionable Wood's lamp test (the PA admitted it was very difficult to see with sunlight in the room) she pivoted to Vitiligo.. I'm rather unconvinced. Seeking thoughts on what this could be?

She is also starting to develop some on one of her elbows.

I suppose the treatment of a topical steroid may be very similar if this is something like psoriasis or eczema??
