Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Kim Kardashian reveals son has vitiligo
Caption: Kim Kardashian reveals son has vitiligo. While opening up about her struggle with psoriasis during an appearance on the She MD podcast this week, the 43-year-old reality star revealed that one of her sons has "mild" vitiligo. ”It came from my mom, went to me ... and I passed it on in a different form to my son, who has vitiligo very mildly.” Vitiligo is a condition in which pale patches develop on the skin due to a lack of melanin. ”I didn't know anything about it, but having to learn about it and figuring out where it came from and that it's hereditary and just learning more and being able to share that (has been a blessing).” Kim - who has two sons, Saint, eight, and Psalm, five, with ex-husband Kanye West - has not revealed which of the boys has been diagnosed with vitiligo. The Kardashians star and the Donda rapper also have daughters North, 11, and Chicago, six. The Skims founder then shared that she has been struggling with psoriasis for several years. "I'll do anything," she said of treating the condition. ”I've tried ... special herbs, the holistic way, a celery juice diet for six weeks, every topical cream, every soap from natural to unnatural.” Kim added that she previously treated the psoriasis with a cortisone shot, but it came back after five years and the injection hasn't worked since.
