Scratchy bit darker patch on biceps.

Question

Asked for Male, 33 Years

From last 6 months I am unwillingly mildly scratching a bit darker shade part on my biceps. Now it is constantly making me urge to scratch. However, I am not scratching. Before 6 months I think It was not existing. 6 month ago I had to have tamyflue because I was in contact with my pregnant wife having swine flue. I think from that time only I am having this scratchy bit darker patch. I think I need to go to a dermatologist. What questions he can ask?
