What Does A Brown Spot In The Armpit Indicate?

I am 20 yr old and i recently got an oval shape brown spot on my right armpit. It does not itch. Few doctors that i visited in the past have told me that my skin is quite sensitive..like I had warts on my fingers and am still prone to dandruff infections. So is it fungal...or its just a normal dark spot that will go away.

Hello,

It seems it is just dark pigmentation about which you don't worry. It could not be a fungal infection. It is likely due to a hormonal level change in the body.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhadresh Lakhani
