What Causes Skin Coloration While Having Psoriasis?
I have psorasis. I am presently noticing dark discoloration on my skin - I am caucasian. These spots are occurring where I previously had outbreaks of psoriasis. They look like dirty spots and they will not go away. What is causing this skin discoloration and how can I get my skin back to my normal coloration? It is enbarassing and I must wear long sleeves out. It is also appearing on my body and face.

HI
Well come to HCM
If the color being changed at the site of psoriasis lesion then this is very likely and with proper treatment of psoriasis this would come around and if this is generalized then this may not be due to psoriasis and this may be hypersensitivity reaction and this can be treated with Tab Levocetrizine 10 mg three times in day, hope this information helps.
