Hi shamiraoof,
Welcome to HCM.
Allergy to drugs sometimes leaves a black spot on the skin. Usually it gradually fades away but sometimes it may persist. Usually there is no treatment for this. However you may try local application of "NOMARKS Cream"
Do not try any thing without doctors advise, since he is allergic to paracetamol, he may be allergic to some other drugs also.
You may visit a dermatologist and take his opinion.

hi
welcome to health care magic
i am happy to answer ur query
it is very uncommon to have paracetamol allergy as it is very safe drug
u must not give it again without doctor advise and observation
u can do drug sensitivity test to find out sensitivity to drugs
black mark will take time but u can apply tacrolimus 0.03 % cream at night
avoid sun exposure over it as it will make it more darker.
better to consult dermatologist
