What Causes Dark Brownish Pigmented Spots All Over The Pelvis?
I have undergone cholesystectomy laproscopy 2 weeks back. In the operation note doctor has mentioned dark brownish pigmented spots all over the pelvis and told to have a check with gynaec. What could be the reason for the spots? Is it something to worry?
I can understand your concern for dark brownish pigmented spots all over the pelvis. There can be multiple possibilities of the dark brownish pigmented spots and it requires a close physical examination to diagnose the exact entity of the problem.
In my view correlating with the facts you have provided it appears to be fungal infection of the area.
I suggest you to meet a dermatologist to for proper therapy. In between you should wash the area properly. If I were your dermatologist then presumptively would have preferred to apply an antifungal cream such as clotrimazole or miconazole. You can take an antihistamine such as loratadine for once a day if itching is present.
Do not try to pinch, pop or squeeze the area as it may cause secondary infection of the area.
All the best
