Hi. I have a big black patch on right and mid of my upper back. I acquired it 7-8 years ago. I first noticed it after I d been swimming for 2 weeks and assumed it was sun-burn. However it never went away. I ve seen dermatologists and they say that change of skin color is irreversible. That it s probably genetic. However nobody in my family has any issue like this. Recently a doc has diagnosed it as macular amyloidosis. She says it s due to use of loofah(excessive friction). She s prescribed ointments: xerina and kojivit. I have acne, sensitive skin, hairfall. My cycles are regular. Could this pigmentation be hormonal?
HI Thank for asking to HCM I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here by you I would say that this hyperpigmentation patch is normal and just nothing to worry about this as this is asymptomatic, neither this related any of your health issue so in my opinion just forget about this, take care and have a nice day.
