Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Masturbation usually does not cause hyperpigmentation. Please try to clean the brown pigmentation with soap and you do not need to worry. Please do consult your dermatologist immediately if you have any genital ulcer/genital discharge.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
