The darkening could be due to acanthosis nigricans, post-inflammatory pigmentation, or chronic fungal infection.
Next Steps
Use a salicylic acid cleanser and apply a kojic acid-based cream at night. If no improvement, consult a dermatologist for tailored treatment.
Health Tips
Avoid friction and harsh products. If associated with weight gain, check for metabolic issues.
