Discolouration of skin (self.medical_advice)

So I was wondering about this as while doing research I can’t find anything that matches. So my skin has a slight tan/grey shade to it. It ranges over my shoulders over my chest and around the bottom of my breast. It’s not itchy, rough, scaly anything of that sorts. Just seemed to all of suddenly just multiply. Any advice or possibly things to watch out for if it may be something. I’m 20 y 280 6ft. If that helps.

See a doctor. Don't trust strangers on the internet. Besides that, what is someone supposed to do with a vague text description of a physical ailment and your height and weight? That's not nearly enough information. So you either need to tell us many many intimate and personal details, including photos, or, SEE A TRAINED PROFESSIONAL.

That's literally this whole community. A picture would help, though.

Here’s a photo of where it mainly is? Also what questions would you need to ask? As the description is really most of it.

Nothing on your face?

You don't have any muscle pain? This looks like a possible "shawl sign" to me, but dermatology is not my best area. Were those areas exposed from your clothes? What meds are you on?

[–] DaddysLittleSlut 0 points 4 months ago

Ohhhh I have crazy muscle pain, my arms recently broke and healed. Then my chest feels like it has a fracture and my legs are sore 24/7 but I do have cerebral palsy. Though no they are rarely ever exposed besides shower. But Lamictal, 4 25s.

I do not yet have health insurance so whenever I get it, I’ll bring up these and ask what they think. Thank you for the help.

Look up dermatomyositis and see if that fits.

[–] DaddysLittleSlut 0 points 4 months ago

Sadly doesn’t fit. It causes rashes almost that are red. For me it’s that tan like colour that has no texture difference really and doesn’t itch or hurt ether.
