Ignatz answered Wednesday January 14 2009, 6:29 pm: Have the dark patches appeared just recently, or have they been around for a long time? Skin discolorations can symptoms of diseases such as vitiligo, or they can just be variations in your skin pigment. Do they itch or hurt? Feel numb compared to other parts of your body?
Please, don't hurt yourself trying to get rid of them. Depending on what they are, there may be simple medical treatments, or you may need cosmetic surgery. If you're really concerned, talk to a dermatologist.
