Have you noticed small white spots on your arms or legs… and you don’t know what they are?

IGH spots usually appear on the arms and legs and are flat and smooth

Fungal patches often show up on the chest, back, or shoulders and may feel itchy or look slightly scaly

If your spots are spreading rapidly, changing appearance, or causing discomfort, it’s best to consult a healthcare professional to rule out other skin conditions.

What Can You Do If They Bother You?

While IGH cannot be fully cured, there are ways to manage their appearance:

• Use body makeup or self-tanner to help even out skin tone
• Apply sunscreen regularly to reduce the risk of new spots forming
• Keep skin well moisturized to improve its overall look

Above all, it’s important to remember that these white spots are normal, harmless, and very common with age. They are not a sign of unhealthy skin, but simply a visible reminder of time and sun exposure.
