Detailed Answer:
Hey thanks for your faith in the health care Magic
I have gone through your question and I understood your problem.
Mottled skin appearance can be due to
Pityriasis XXXXXXX
Tinea versicolor
Radiation
Melanoma
Moles
Erythrasma
Vitiligo.
I would further like to know about if this mottling is associated with rash?
Calcification in aorta should not be ignored it can cause heart failure,stroke etc.So I will suggest you to consult with your cardiologist as soon as possible.
Have you undergone Pulmonary function tests?let me know their results.Also what are the respiratory symptoms you are having? Like do you have shortness of breath?fatigue?can you your regular activities??
