White spots: This may be a fungal infection such as times versicolor (can be treated with selsun blue shampoo with aloe or rx pills) or tunes corporus (treated with otc anti fungal cream/ointment).

Many possibilities: These lesions would likely need to be examined and more history obtained to be able to provide you with useful input about the diagnosis or possible treatment.
