Brief Answer:
Need to see the exact skin condition
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I understand your concern regarding your skin problem and I hope I am able to help you in the same.
Pigmentation over the folds or groin region can be secondary to skin infections in the area or it can also be genetic .
So firstly it is important to rule out any infections.
Please tell since when do you have this problem?
Is there any associated pain or itching or discomfort?
Itching could be a sign of infection .
I would like to have a look at the exact skin condition.
Please click some close up pictures of the affected area and upload them here on this page.
I am sure I will be able to help you better once you provide me the pictures .
