White Spots on skin... - Skin Problems Message Board

I have noticed in the past few months I have gotten a numerous amount of white spots on my chest/neck area near cleavage. It is now getting bad enough where friends are asking me what are those spots on your neck area. They don't itch, they are not scaly or textured in anyway. Anyone know what these maybe and are they seroius. I get them on my arms too. Sun Spots??

Thanks

Hey I have the same thing on my belly back and chest.Its called tinea versicolor.Its a fungus.I went to the dermatologist and they gave me a selenium sulfide lotion and shampoo to use.Dont worry this is not serious.Just go to your doctor to get it cured because it will not go away on its own.

It could also be vitiligo. I would go to the derm soon just to make sure and it give yourself some peace of mind. Take care

I think i have the same thing! I've had it for like 3 years now and I really hate them! So, Have you tried that body shampoo that people say works? If so, please let me know if it worked for you because i would like to see if the spots when away with that. Please let me know!!!
