Question:

i have light skin and some parts of my armpits are like darker than my normal skin tone. this makes my armpit look dirty and thats why i cant wear tanktops and im scared to wear a dress without anything on top. ive tried to get rid of it but i dont know what it is, what caused it but i do know that i have it. i have very clean hygene so i dont know what caused this. and ive tried rubbing it off in the shower and spas for a couple of years now. it doesnt itch or anything so i know its not some kind of disease. helppp pleassee! i hate the fact that i feel uncomfortable in tank tops, swimsuits, and dresses. help? thanks

Answers:
if it has a velvety feeling to it, it is called acanthosis nigricans, you could see a doctor, it may never go away. good luck

It could be simple irritation from shaving or even your deodorant. No need to panic, very few people will examine these parts of your body as closely as you do.
