What Do White Spots On The Head And Large Patches On The Cheeks Indicate?
Hi there, my husband has two large patches that has appeared on his cheeks. They have been there for the past month. Also, he is complaining of having white spots that appeared in his head. His head is clean shaven. In the past, he has had several MRIs on his knees and shoulders from an injury sustained in 2012. Do you think the MRIs could have caused the dark spots on his cheeks?

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
These spots and patches could be because of some skin infection. But before commenting I would like to see these spots in person else you may upload pics here for further evaluation. I don't think that MRI cause any kind of patches or spots on skin.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Maheshwari
