Stage 4

Stage 4 also lasts for the rest of your life. This is areas of the skin that do not hold any color at all. When you get a tan, they will stay white. These are blotchy areas, seen on the legs a lot, that can occur anywhere. No pain is associated with these last 2 stages!!! This is a very good thing, that the child has to go through no pain at all to very slight pain for not long. Considering how long the stages last, the baby having to deal with just a little pain is a very comforting thing. Now that all the skin stuff is over, I will let you know about some of the other complications that are a possibility.
