Hi,White patch can be a manifestation of many conditions. It is difficult to tell what can it be without proper examination and proper history.

But don't get worried it may not be a major problem.

I suggest you to meet a dermatologist nearby to get the proper diagnosis and adequate treatment .

You may upload pictures to this website which may help in diagnosing it.

Hope it helps you. Take care.
