Brown Place All Around Elbow Can Be Due To Thyroid Problem?

I noticed about a 2 inch brown place all around my elbow this a.m. I have had type 2 diabetes for about 8 years now which has always been under control and my A1C test every 3 months is always excellent.. I take Metformin daily. Could you tell me if this has anything to do with thyroid problems?

Hello and thank you for asking!
I have gone carefully through your concern but i would suggest to attach a picture of the lesion at the elbow so i can have a better image of it.
