A member asked:
I have four very light cafe au kait spots between .5 and 1 cm. and one that is extremely light and 2 cm. is this just normal? no other symptoms.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal person?: A normal person is still considered normal if he or she has 5 cafe au lait spots. She can ask her primary care doctor at her check-ups, which may happen every 3 years or so, if she is normal and healthy. She may also just make a separate appointment to ask her doctor to check on her skin to look for anything unusual, not just at the cafe au lait spots.
