From your description, it looks kike you are having vitiligo which is characterized by development of white patches over the skin. You owe the backache to the medicines. Looks like you have been on long term oral steroids. Nowadays , we have many treatment options available for vitiligo. I would advise you to see a dermatologist for proper assessment of the extent of the disease in your case and management. I can assure you that we have so many options available for this disease nowadays and with proper management, you can regain the lost pigment.
