Black marks on chin, chest, and stomach after acne or infection are usually post-inflammatory pigmentation. Fungal infection on the thigh can also leave dark patches if scratched or treated late. Avoid steroid combination creams. Keep the area clean and dry, and use a gentle moisturizer and sunscreen for exposed areas. Aloe vera may soothe mild pigmentation. Since multiple areas are involved, proper examination is important. You may visit our clinic for accurate diagnosis and personalised treatment.
