Hello,
You have developed post inflammatory hyper-pigmentation (PIH) due to injury. Inflammation is associated with injury which causes pigmentation after healing. Mometasone is given to control that inflammation in initial stage of injury. Now for pigmentation you need to apply Azelaic acid 20% cream once daily on dark spots for at least 1 month.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
