Skin tone changes daily

[Adsan1280]

What could be causing my skin color to change daily? It goes from dark brown to very light brown....I'm dark brown naturally and when my skin tone changes to light brown it appears very pale and sickly.

Could you provide an ideas??

Hi there!

Well, without a detailed clinical evaluation it would be difficult to determine the cause of your symptoms. Possibilities that may need to be considered include environmental factors such as sunlight, metabolic/ systemic causes, micronutrient deficiencies, primary skin conditions etc. You may consider an evaluation by a primary care physician or a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management.
Hope this is helpful.

Take care!
