Sunprotection is the best thing to prevent skin darkening.apply sunscreen everyday every 2hourly. Post inflammatory pigmentation can happen which appears esp chronic in your case. You can take few peel/laser/polish session with a dermatologist. Glutathione injection are also helpful. A picture would have helped.
