Hyperpigmented armpits that turned white but no rash
My armpits are suddenly hyper pigmented with white blotchy patches. I never had a rash or any issue. Both are the same. I use only natural deoderant with no aluminum or chemicals. Nothing in my routine has changed. Any ideas?

It may be a condition called vitiligo- which causes the pigment of your skin to lighten. A doctor will need to give you an exam and can also help you with ideas to treat it, if it bothers you. Let us know how you are doing after you have a doc take a look!
