Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have dark patches on legs which seems to be due to inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to apply topical kojic acid based ointment/gel in 2%concentration as it will act as lightening agent. You should wear loose clothes and avoid sharing them with anyone. Maintain complete hygiene and keep area little dry. Visit dermatologist once if symptoms keeps on persisting. Start treatment after complete examination and proper prescription.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
