Tanned line on neck
Doctor, I'm noticing a tanned line on my neck like a necklace it is not velvety to touch neither it is so dark, it is not on my neck folds but actually beneath my neck folds. What it can be? Is it something related to metabolism disorder? I'm overweight but I'm 23 years old male
