Hello there!
This is a forum for HIV+ people. Are you HIV+? Just tested HIV+?
If so, do you know anything about the current state of your health?

Vitiligo - often not worrying. Or sometimes associated with more serious health threats. To check out with your doctor.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitiligo

A recent HIV+ diagnosis is much more concerning than a spot of vitiligo.....

Vitiligo signs and symptoms varies considerably from person-to-person. It is by far more perceptible in people with dark or tanned skinned. Some people may only acquire a handful of white dots which develops no further, while others develop larger white patches that join together affecting larger areas of the skin.

Nobody here is qualified to make an assessment over the internet. :D

Make an appointment with a medical health professional. Get the spots checked out. The sooner you do this, the sooner you have peace of mind.
Reality is frequently inaccurate.
