What Causes White Mark Behind The Ear?

Hi, our 5 yr old son has a white mark behind his ear, we have also noticed a few on his body, he has also recently been complaining of loud noises when things are not particularly loud. I don t know of it could be connected but he has also had enlarged tonsils for most of the year-our GP says there ok tho.... Any help/information would help even if it s just to put our minds at rest Thanks

Hi white spots are common in children and are due to a mild fungal infection. You can try an antifungal cream and if it does not work, show him to his doctor.
Other symptoms are not related to this. Regards
