Skin color change involves alterations in the normal hue or pigmentation of the skin. This can manifest as darkening (hyperpigmentation), lightening (hypopigmentation), redness (erythema), or bluish tones (cyanosis). Such changes can occur due to a variety of reasons, including inflammatory conditions, infections, allergic reactions, vascular issues, or skin diseases like eczema or psoriasis. It’s important to observe any persistent or unusual changes in skin color and seek medical evaluation to determine the underlying cause.
