Brief Answer:
Can occur due to certain foods, food dyes or medicines

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at Healthcaremagic
I have gone through your complaints.
It seems you are secreting brownish colour from your skin glands.
It can occur when a person takes food containing certain brown or red dyes or brown cooured foods.
Some medicines can also stain the clothes.
Are taking any of these?
Regards
Dr Asmeet
