Can eczema be brown?

My eczema patches usually look red and inflamed, but lately, some of the older spots on my legs have turned a darker, brownish color. Is it normal for eczema to change color and become brown, or does this indicate something different?

Haan, eczema thoda brown ya dark color ka ho sakta hai, khaskar hamari Indian skin tone par jahan thoda hyperpigmentation ho jata hai. Mere dhyan me hai ki diabetes me skin dry ho kar aisi dikhti hai, isliye skin doctor ko dikhana hi behtar hai.

Brown toh dikhta hai hum jaise wheatish skin walo par. Doctor ke clinic jane se pehle government hospital ya trust wale laboratory me jaakar checkup karwa lo, kam budget me tests aur treatment options mil jayenge.

Mera pichle saal ka eczema dry hokar bilkul brown aur thick ho gaya tha, ajeeb sa lagta tha dekhne me. Scratch karne se ye aur dark ho jata hai isliye bilkul mat chhuo. Maine regular cream lagayi toh ab skin pehle jaisi ho gayi hai.

Don't stress too much yaar! Brown patches tab aate hain jab pehle ka eczema thoda theek ho raha ho ya purana ho gaya ho. Meri sis ke sath bhi yehi hua tha, moisturiser lagate raho ye slow-slow light ho jata hai.

Haan, dark brown ya brownish-gray patches ho sakte hain skin par. Main toh isme paani aur green vegetables lene ki salah dunga taaki skin andar se heal ho. Lekin is badalte rang ke liye dermat ko zaroor dikha lein.

Haan bro, thick aur brown patches bilkul common hain jab eczema chronic ho jaye. Hard workout ke baad jo sweat hota hai usse bhi irritation badhti hai. Skin ko clean rakho aur sweat control karne wale kapde pehno.

Mere case me eczema brown hone laga tha aur maine ise ignore kiya, baad me skin wahan se fat gayi aur bura infection ho gaya tha. Aisi galti aap mat kijiye. Rang badalte hi doctor se ilaaj shuru karwayiye.
