Hi there...I can understand your concern. It would have been better if you had posted a photo of the pigmentation. I think what you are telling about is acanthosis nigricans. But even conditions like macular amyloidosis, pmle can mimic such conditions. So important to diagnose the condition correctly. So kindly consult a nearby dermatologist for further evaluation.
