Discoloration of Elbows and Knees - Causes and some Treatment options for that
Definition Usually we have seen that the color of elbows and knees is different from the skin color. The elbows and knees are darker than the rest of the body skin. The color of the skin depends on a pigment called melanin. The fair skin does not have any melanin in it. So it looks fair. On the other hand the skin of elbows and knees has melanin. So the color of the elbows and knees skin is darker. This is a natural process. But sometimes either of the elbows or knees or both become darker to look bad. Sometimes there may be some circles on these. Sometimes the skin of these organs disturbs by regular pressure on them. Causes
