Hi
You seem to be having a Vit B12 deficiency or a thyroid dysfunction. Please check your blood for the same and take treatment if needed.
Please use a good sunscreen regularly. Also wear a jacket when out doors. Foods rich in antioxidants like spinach carrots beetroots pomegranate will help improve skin colour
