WHAT DO THOSE DARK SPOT MEAN?

ACANTHOSIS NIGRICANS: 

What are those dark spots that are  around the neck, elbows, and even in armpits and folds of the body on some people?  


Today I will explain why some people get those dark spots. Usually people will feel ashamed because of this, and consequently, they will not go to the doctor because they think it is related to poor hygiene. Wrong!! ACANTHOSIS NIGRICANS mainly affects African, Hispanic and Caribbean people. However, it could affect anyone who is obese, and even children.

Today I will put special emphasis on Diabetic Neuropathy Distal that produces tingling, numbness in feet, muscle weakness, and eventually, ulcers or open sores.
