Darkness around neck and mouth
Hi,
I have darkness around my neck ( front side) and darkness around my mouth for the past 3 years. I consulted multiple doctors and they gave me triluma kind of medications and spoiled my skin. I am tired of consulting doctors. I didn't find the right doctor with the right solution. Everyone is trying to solve the outside problem but no one told me why it occurred in the first place. I have regular periods and recently gave birth to a baby. So I am not sure if I have a PCOS problem or insulin resistance or any other problem. I don't know if it is Aconthesis nigreans because skin around my neck is not thick. Can any of you suggest me how to figure out the root cause and what is going on with my skin. I have acne and hairfall issues as well. I am 32 years old. I eat healthy food and live a healthy lifestyle.
