Sending P&PT because I totally get being worried that your child has some condition that hasn't been diagnosed yet. I would try not to worry, though, because even though I also exhaustively research everything, I would definitely trust my child's pediatrician over Dr. Google.
But I wanted to tell you that DD1 has always had a couple of gray hairs on her head. It didn't even occur to me to worry about them! I vaguely remember asking her pediatrician when she was 3-ish about them and she said it was totally normal for a child to have a gray hair or two, they're just more noticeable when the child in question has darker hair, as DD1 does.
