A member asked:

The left and right side of my mouth is black this happened a few years ago i have used different lightening creams but it did not help. can you help?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Dermatology: I think it is time then to see Dermatology. It is difficult to tell what is going on without actually seeing the discoloration. I think that if you have tried different remedies and no improvement then it is time to see a specialist for a better therapy. Best wishes.
