Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Most probably it is a sun tan, However, we have to rule out other conditions before commencing the treatment. It will be better if you attach a picture in next query to make an appropriate diagnosis. You can consult a dermatologist and he will direct you accordingly.
Wishing you good health.
