Suggest Remedy For Dark Skin Pigmentation

I would like to know what causes you to have darkness in your skin in certain areas such ass between the cheeks and inner thighs even on the back of neck . Is this normal ? Can something change it ? Scrubbing hard does nothing is this something to be worried about. It isn t a bit attractive whatsoever
