Question

I'm 23 and I've been dealing with this issue since I was 12; the skin on my buttocks and lower back is noticeably darker. It's embarrassing and I'm not sure why it happened, so I'm really looking for some advice or treatment options that could help me with this. What could be causing this and are there any treatments you'd recommend?
