White spots may be caused by skin conditions like vitiligo or fungal infections.
If new or spreading, get evaluated by a dermatologist.
4. Yellow Dots (Sebaceous Hyperplasia or Jaundice)
Small yellowish bumps might be enlarged oil glands; generally harmless.
Yellowing of the skin overall could indicate liver issues—seek medical care.

Any change or irregularity should be checked.
When to See a Doctor:

If accompanied by itching, pain, bleeding, or other symptoms
If you have a family history of skin cancer
If you notice new, unusual or multiple spots developing quickly
Remember: Early detection is key to treating skin conditions effectively. When in doubt, consult a healthcare professional.
