Brief Answer:
Doesn't seem to be anything to worry.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

If it doesn't itch or burn, if it is not irritated or bumpy I don't think it is something to worry about.
It can be normal possibly caused by friction.
You can use exfoliating scrub once a week to help remove the dark skin .
I don't think you have to worry about it.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thanks.

Thank u for the quick response. I will definitely try an exfoliant scrub. Also, do u think I can use XXXXXXX (which is a skin lightening cream) in that area? And would it hurt if I tried Lotrimin on it?

No need for lotrimin cream.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and thank you for asking again.
