What does darker pigmentation on the neck signify?
Hi! I cut my beard and noticed under my beard a large spot with different pigmentation...so after I shaved completely I've seen spots around it. Couple of days later, it got worse. Skin is a little bit darker and spots go little bit around the neck with the big one still in the middle of my neck (where adam's apple is).
What could it mean? I've read diabetes, cancer etc., but I would like to hear opinions because I'm unable to go to the doctor for the next couple of weeks...

Darker pigmentation can mean lots of things, but it can also be pretty normal for it to happen for harmless reasons. The best bet of getting to the bottom of why you are personally seeing it- is to get to a doctor and have them take a look. They should examen you in person and gather your more of your medical history in order to determine the cause.
