Did the doctor tell you what the  Desonide Lotion was given to you to treat?  They usually give it for things like eczema or psoriasis- if the spots were white it sounds like it may have been psoriasis, which can be a life long condition in some cases.  I'd give your doctor a call to clarify the condition you had and let them know the spots have returned.
