A patch near the areola for 3 weeks that became dark and then lighter is usually due to mild skin irritation, pigmentation change, or a fungal infection. What you should do: Keep the area clean and dry Avoid new soaps, creams, or tight bras Do not apply random creams or steroids Important: If the patch does not disappear in another 1–2 weeks, or if there is itching, scaling, nipple change, discharge, or increase in size, consult a gynacologist to rule out conditions like Paget’s disease of the breast (rare but needs checking)
