hello and pleased to help you.
dark skin around your neck can be the redults of multiples diseases, mostly fungal infection, eczema, acanthosis nigricans, diabetes, some liver diseases..etc.
I would be pleased if you consult an internal medicine doctor.
waiting the consult you can use exfoliatting the dark area with sugar and lemon or some home remedies as lemon juice or yogurt.
a medical treatment need a medical check up.
