Hi,
The spots may be due fungal infection like tinea versicolor. Tinea infections can cause hypo or hyper-pigmented patches on the body which can cause scaling or itching. Anti-fungal drugs like Miconazole can be locally applied to reduce infection. Avoid excess sweat which can increase the infection. Personal hygiene should also be maintained.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
