The skin turns white under a band-aid due to a combination of moisture and occlusion. The band-aid creates a sealed environment that traps moisture, causing the skin to absorb water and swell, leading to a temporary whitening effect. This phenomenon is often referred to as "maceration." Additionally, the lack of oxygen can contribute to the change in skin color.
