What Causes Brown Color Skin Rashes On The Shoulder?

My 16 year daughter just showed me a dark brown area between her shoulder blades that we have never noticed before.. I did an assessment of the rest of her skin and did not discover any other areas. My initial thoughts was that it was build up of soap but wanted to inquire as to other possible causes.

Hello dear,
Welcome to healthcaremagic. I have read your query and understood your concern.
Such brown colored rash in between shoulder blades can be due to
1) eczema
2) fungal infection
3) notalgia paresthetica

I would advise you to visit your dermatologist for proper examination and evaluation.
