The skin on both sides of the buttocks has turned black, and the feeling when touched is like small bumps. What should I do?

Patient's question:

After giving birth for a year and a half, the sides of my buttocks have turned black, and the texture feels like small bumps. It's rough and not smooth, it's so ugly. The groin area has also turned black. Why is this happening? I only noticed it recently after having the baby, but I don't know when it started. Can it disappear? Can it return to its original color at least? What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it's a pleasure to assist you: Based on the situation you described, the main consideration is hyperpigmentation caused by a lack of trace elements. Primarily, it's important to maintain good skin hygiene, eat more fruits and vegetables, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. It's also advisable to supplement with vitamins appropriately. I recommend seeking timely treatment at a professional hospital. If necessary, it's suggested to have a check-up at the dermatology department of a hospital.
