I've noticed some dark spots under my armpits and the skin there is quite a bit darker than the rest of my skin. It's strange because there are these dark spots on the upper part too. Should I be worried about this or is there something I can do about it?

The dark-colored spots and hyperpigmentation under your armpits may be caused by excessive sweating, shaving, or friction, and can be treated with topical creams containing hydroquinone, kojic acid, or retinoids, as well as home remedies like turmeric, lemon juice, or cucumber, and maintaining good hygiene and using gentle hair removal methods.

My younger sister is 23, and she has been dealing with these black spots all over her body for the past two years. She's seen a bunch of doctors, but there hasn't been any improvement. We're really concerned about what to do next. Any suggestions or possible solutions?

To address this issue, I recommend she try using a skin lightening cream containing hydroquinone, such as Melalite cream. She can apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected areas once daily in the evening. Additionally, she should use a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day to protect her skin from further darkening. If there is no improvement after a few weeks of consistent use, she should consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
