Hello doctor, I'm 39 year old male. I got skin problem and the symptoms of dark skin color appearing around my neck and on folding area. Initially I had skin irritation but later it is subsidized but the dark skin still continues to appear around the neck. Would like to understand if the symptoms mentioned is a result of food habits or working culture or climate related and what could be possible medication to restore to normalcy. Thanks
