Hi. I used a shaving gel about a monthago on my armpits shortly after a dark circles that were purpleish red began to appear. They itched and later the itching went away but dark blackish spots remained and got bigger. I thought it would go away but hasn t. Will itgo away or should I go get it checked?
You seem to have developed post inflammatory hyper-pigmentation. You need to go for depigmenting cream to lighten the spots. I would recommend you to consult a doctor for the same.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
