Specializes in Pediatrics

See your doctor: It’s best to be examined for proper diagnosis, possible testing, and treatment if necessary. Some viral infections may have the symptoms and signs you are describing. As you have a headache along with the white spots, you need to have a proper evaluation which we can’t do fully here.
