What Could Dark Thigh With Hair Follicles On Breast Suggest?

My inner theighs are very dark and there are many blackheads along with boils from time to time. The same happens to my arm pits but without boils. However on the back of my neck I get 2 boils that go away and then come back. The area in between my breast is a dark color. And there are hair follicle like things on my breast. I am thinking these are problems as a result of being over weight but there are many over weight people without these problems so I m confused.
