Hi, Thank you for your question. These spots could be due to white matter disease. In white matter disease or microvesicular ischemic disease of brain, pathology is associated with the brain white matter, either exclusively or in combination with grey matter changes. It occurs due to metabolism errors, exogenous toxins released by virus, autoimmune disease, leukodystrophy, demyelination, and radiation effects. Spasticity, muscle weakness, paralysis, hyper-reflexia and movement disorder may be the clinical features associated with white matter disease that need to be evaluated thoroughly. However, it is sad to say that there is no permanent cure but conservative treatment & physiotherapy exercises that would help you to regain your normal function and stopping the further progression of the disease. Please consult a neurologist in this regards. Hope this helps.
Please get a copy of the report. It is *probably* white matter disease, and that can be caused by a lot of things from migraines to ms - even high blood pressure. But a doctor telling you it is age spots is not very helpful. Get him to tell you the correct story and get a copy of the record.
