Suggest Remedies For Dark Skin Around Neck, Underarms And Chest
My 17 yr old daughter lost three quarters of her blood three yrs ago. Now she has severe skin problems. She has seen hemotogy- oncology, endocrinology, dermatologist, and no one knows why she has severe Skin issues. She now has dark skin around neck and underarms and chest area. Her skin become itchy and red. Off and on. No one could tell us why she lost her blood. Her hemoblin is 13 now. It was 5 three yrs ago.
There can be various clinical disorders presenting with dark skin around neck, underarms and chest at the age of 17 as: - Diabetes - Disorders of melanin pigmentation - Side effects of certain drugs - Endocrinopathies - Auto immune disorders - Metabolic derangements - Oncology co relation
However, the skin biopsy is the ultimate answer for the final diagnosis and if the same has been taken during your examination by doctor.
