A value of NULL indicates that the value is unknown. A value of NULL is different from an empty or zero value. No two null values are equal. Comparisons between two null values, or between a NULL and any other value, return unknown because the value of each NULL is unknown.
Skin Spots on the Face. Most causes of spots on face are harmless. They can be a variety of colors including white, red, black or brown. Common causes include cumulative sun exposure, acne, and skin tags. Keratoacanthoma (hyperkeratosis) is a lesion that grows rapidly, usually on areas exposed to the sun.
Bacterial and viral infections within your body can cause your skin to break out in spots as well. The chickenpox virus, for example, can cause itchy spots in children. Years later, in older adults, the same virus may reappear as shingles, bringing a painful rash and high fever.
