My skin has been noticeably darker ever since I had typhoid about five years ago. I recently did a blood test, and everything came back normal, but my skin tone just seems to keep getting darker. It's really worrying me, and I'm trying to understand why this is happening and what I can do about it. Could there be some underlying issue that's causing this, even if my blood work looks fine?

I've been dealing with a rash in my private areas and tried using Dermi 5 cream, but it hasn't helped. In fact, the rash is spreading across my buttock. I'm really worried now. What else can I do to get rid of it, and should I be concerned about it getting worse?
