Doctor can evaluate: Dark patches are hard to describe in words. A doctor's exam can help decide what the darkening might be. It can be "post-inflammatory", the residual effects of an earlier rash. It can be a skin reaction with chemicals, leaving colored stains. It can be genetic or familial, or be due to eczema, rosacea, melasma, or other skin conditions. A dermatologist can help even out skin tones, partially.
