First of all. When you have a skin condition, you see a dermatologist not a gynecologist. Well, I was a victim of this sometimes last year too. It became more pronounced early this year and led me to depression. I went to the hospital severally to see a dermatologist and I was eventually diagnosed of of lichen planus. My dear. It is called lichen planus... you can Google lichen planus or follow lichen planus pages on fb and instagram to see more people that have it. It is an auto immune disorder whereby youR immune system fights your skin. You just have to accept fate because there is no cure... if you are lucky, it will fade off by itself after a few years. Mine is only on my laps though but I have seen people have it all over there body

That's clearly vitiligo. It can last for years or could be lifelong.



Treatment may help, but that condition doesn't seem to have a cure.

For months now, I have been having these dark coloured stuffs/layers on my skin of which I had to consult a medical doctor who in turn told me it's an "Allergy" after explaining to him that these dark layers doesn't scratch, itch or pain me except for the blemish it's causing on my skin.
NOT SCRATCHING
NO PAIN
NO ITCHING
Just the colour blemish.

He gave me some drugs prescription which I used for three weeks but no improvement. I went back to complain to him and he directed me to some Gynaecologists in the state hospital.

The Gynaecologist I met in the first week wrote several tests which I should do for me after explaining everything to her which I proceeded to the Lab to do.
Microfilaria test, Stool, Urine and see kinds of blood tests were carried out of which all tested NEGATIVE to whatever they have tested each specimen / sample for.

Took the results to the state hospital weeks after but I met another Gynaecologist (Rotation) who later asked me to go for HIV test after showing her all the results and this blemish on my skin.

She told me the drugs and cream I used for the treatment in the first place won't work, but she reaffirmed that it's AN ALLERGY like the Medical Doctor told me in the first place.
She prescribed another cream of which I have used for weeks, yet, no changes!

Doctors, Gynaecologists in the house, please your help is needed.

Hello OP I am an alternative medicine practitioner based in Ghana and already assisting some nairalanders here in Ghana and in Nigeria with solutions to their own medical conditions and skin conditions.

I am surprised that you had to go to a gynaecologist for a skin condition.

Anyway this is not a skin condition as you thought but the reaction is showing on your skin. There is however an underlying cause of this.

This is an inflammatory disease caused by your immune system attacking its own tissues. More like your body is fighting itself and this is why they could not detect anything at the lab.

I know what you have but before I can say it I need you to answer a few questions.

1) Do you sometimes or often feel pains in the muscles?

2) Do you sometimes feel pain while breathing?

3) Do you sometimes feel a sharp pain in the chest

4) Do you sometimes feel whole body fatigue or fever?

5) Does your mouth sometimes feel dry.

6) Are you suffering some form of hair loss or loss of scalp hair

7) Does your body feel sensitive to sunlight? I mean when under direct sunlight do the parts with the discoloration feel different?

Kindly respond to my questions then I can make things clear to you. Thank you

PS, a dermatologist cannot help you.

My dear don't rub any healing substance on top , go and meet a dermatologist or just stop using or eating what u were eating . Its looks like it's coming from inside . Then u will need drugs not robbing anything . If it's a cream u rubbed. Just stop and be using Johnson baby soap and oil and allow ur skin to grow back.

That is not lichen planus. The pictures she attached are clear enough to show it is not lichen planus. Her discoloration is not appearing above her skin level as raised rashes or a raised discoloration. It is at skin level or even assumed to be below her normal skin.

You are correct though when you said it is an auto immune problem but it isn't lichen planus.

I don't think there is anything to worry about if it's not itchy or painful, and all your blood tests come back fine. It doesn't seem to be a fungal infection, neither does it appear to be a true allergy. I would simply advice you keep the skin moisturised with a good emollient for now, it should go on its own. I'm simply assuming all the blood tests are fine i.e. HIV, FBC etc. It's best you see a good dermatologist though to get it properly assessed.

Good luck.

Revitiligo ? (Uncle Ruckus fans would understand)

Go and see a DERMATOLOGIST at a Teaching Hospital preferably....

Their services are often expensive (they might refer you to their private practices) but you would likely get the best advice.

Uncle Ruckus ftw!
Re: Help! Dark Layers/spots On My Skin. What's The Cause / Cure ? by Saff(f): 9:03pm On Jun 20, 2018
The skin looks so dry and flaky. Please try to drink water and supplements if anything. At least to get rid of the dry texture.

This is new to me
However from experience I will suggest you watch the food you eat.
I know of someone that was having skin issues, red spots caused by groundnuts.
Another issue I have encountered was caused by liquid milk
So do elimination method
Best of Luck

Take one tablespoon of black seed oil 3 times daily and apply it on your body, you will be surprised when you use it .

Prophet Muhammad said and I quote -: "Black Seed cures ALL DISEASES except death " (Hadith - Muslim & Buhari)

This is not the typical presentation of a lichen planus. I have treated lichen planus in the past.

Looks like a severe case of eczema ... ...

Very hard to get rid of but speak to your doctor about it ...

Also ur skin looks dehydrated ...

Start by adding detol to your bathing water. It helps. Then visit a dermatologist in a teaching hospital. They have days of consulting, so confirm the specific day so you don't go wasting your time on non consulting days.
