A member asked:
I had 3 xrays of skull , anterior posterior and lateral view. my concern is can this cause skin tanning or darkening because i have heard radiations can cause darkening?

The radiation exposure from the studies you mentioned will not darken your skin. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

Not going to happen secondary to a skull Xray series. No reason to worry.
