Discoloration On Stomach, Abdominal Pains, Light Bruise

Over the last 4 months, I ve had a weird discoloration on my stomach . On the right side, over the course of said four months, I ve had no actual stomach issues, up until recently. I get random really sharp pains that last for hours in my abdomen . The discoloration has me more concerned than the pain, it looks like a light bruise , but the fact that it s been there for 4-5 months now, has me pretty concerned.

Hi,
You do not worry about the color change. As you have used lot of products so it has caused irritation on your skin.It is is the normal sequel dark shade because of the activity of melanocytes(the color producing cells). This is known as Post inflammatory hyper pigmentation. It will be alright in next few weeks if you are not disturbing with any other cream.
Meet a proper dermatologist to get a good regimen to solve your problem.
