Hi. Greetings. The dark color could be constitutional/ due to infection/ due to hormonal issues- acanthosis nigricans/over weight/ frictional/ due to use of perfume or deodorant. Kindly see a qualified dermatologist near you for further evaluation and treatment. Hope this helps, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal.
