Is there an STD that might cause this?
Are there any STD's that might cause a change in skin pigmentation possibly around the upper arms or shoulders, or elsewhere? For example, patches of white-ish or off colored, dry looking skin?

No, sounds like a skin condition, you should see a dermatologist.

Re: Is there an STD that might cause this?
Yes-
It sounds to me like you have cellulitis:

http://www.mayoclinic.com/invoke.cfm?objectid=2875823B-229A-4555-9C0FC8019E4254BC&dsection=2

It is an inflamation of the skin-

Do some research, it could be it- good luck
