There is patch of dark brown skin.around my wrist what could it be?

Wrist patch: Brown spots can because by many different things. One of those is sun damage but at 26 i would not expect that to happen. It could be that you spilled some lime juice on your arm and then got in the sun! i named a condition called margarita nose in which this happened as a transverse line across the nose which was hyperpigmented or darkened.
