A member asked:
I have psoriasis on my elbows. they are doing great. there's no crust on them .they're perfect. i put my medication on twice a day. however, why is it that a small part of my arm going down to the elbow is dark?

It would require physical examination to know better, however, it is likely post-inflammatory pigmentation and will fade gradually. It may take much longer than you may like, but it is harmless. Wish you good health!
