Hi,

This could be due to sun exposure, sweat dermatitis, eczema or dermatitis , etc.

Do you have any other associated symptoms of itching, rash , etc?

It would not be advisable to scrub the area too hard as this would irritate the skin. You should try to avoid sweat collection in the areas, keep the areas clean, maintain good personal hygiene, wear lose comfortable clothes. Apply calamine lotion at the sites and use a medicated sun screen whenever you go out. Have you noticed growth of facial hair at the sites you mention?

Consult a skin specialist for your complaints and discuss whether a demyleininzing agent would help in your case.

Let us know about how you are doing and if you have any other doubts.

Post us about what your doctor advises.

Regards.
