Suggest Treatment For A Dark Spot On The Lower Back
I have a dark spot on my lower back that has been itching for about a week. It was just itching at first and I was scratching like crazy. Now I notice that it has gotten extremely dark. And im not sure if it s an underlying issue that needs checked out like kidney or liver.

Hi
Welcome.
It requires examination to confirm.
See dermatologist.
To address itching, take oral antihistamine like cetirizine ( alerid) 5 mg twice daily.
Wash the area with cool water and with dermadew soap and apply calamine lotion.
Hope this helps
Take care
