Do these white spots in my forehead mean something serious?

Hello,

Three months ago i noticed that whenever my blood goes up to my head (when i bend over , carry heavy stuff...etc) i see some white spots. My whole head (including forehead) is supposed to be red without white spots , it freaked out everyone around me.

I went to a doctor once and he told me it's natural and that the white spots are the areas that my blood can't reach , therefore the color remains the same (white). I don't believe him , it can't be natural , it suddenly showed up.

Here's a picture of my forehead , and beneath it another picture of my forehead when it's full of blood (i was bending over when i took that picture) :

(note : the spots are more obvious in reality. My camera doesn't show them well)
is this serious? and what doctor should i go to?


Any help would be so much appreciated . I'm really desperate

No. I'm fairly stymied. Are you fair skinned?

You mean "fair skin" as in "light skin"? if so , then i guess not. I'm closer to a latino skin type. It's not as white as it is in the picture.
