Is this Acanthosis Nigricans or Friction in my elbows?
I’ve had this problem on my elbows for a few days now, and it’s starting to worry since i dealt with insulin resistance two years ago with dark armpits, i went on a diet, lost some weight and the AN on the armpits faded away, but now i’m concerned with the same issue on the elbows.
I also don’t have AN anymore on my armpits as i always exercise and eat as healthy as a I can every day, however with this problem on the elbow, i don’t know if it’s AN or friction since i always put my elbows on some table when using the phone or on the job as i work an in-office job.
What is this on my elbow? Can it be treated?
