What do i need to know about treating dark spots on the skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
First you need to: determine the cause of dark spots which can range from fungal infection to systemic disease, but can include post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. See a board certified dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment options. If diagnosis not clear, consider biopsy
