Unhappy red eyed tree frog, HELP!

i resently adopted a red eye tree frog and the previos owner did not take very good care of it. It has little white bumbs on its back,I have read a little on red eyes and their diseases and i know they can get a disease that appeares as white dots, but i also have read they can have natural white pigment spots on their back. How can i tell the difference and if it is a disease what steps should i take>?

White bumps are normal, nothing to worry about. Some red eyes have more, some less, some none.
No need to worry, especially if his appetite and weight are good.

I used to breed Red-eyes for MORE white spots! The ones that were heavily spotted (calico-looking) were WAY more desired. Same with the Whites Tree frogs, although I never got eggs from those damn things.
