Hello,
Regarding Acne, it is age related and common in Adolescent period and young adults. Treatment is any antibiotic cream + Benzoyl peroxide cream + Keratolytic soaps . Avoiding high sugar content food, milk chocolate, oil and fatty diet - is advised. Don't scratch or pinch out.
Regarding the dark patch on your right foot, which is there for 6 months - it needs more details - like how it started and is there any itching, Without this history, diagnosis is difficult. Better consult a dermatologist and get advice.
Best wishes
