Acanthosis Nigricans is a dermatological condition characterised by dark, thickened patches of skin, often with a velvety texture. This disorder typically manifests in areas with skin folds, such as the neck, armpits, groin, and knuckles. Acanthosis Nigricans result from an overproduction of skin pigment (melanin) and the subsequent thickening of the epidermis. While the condition itself is benign, it often serves as a visual indicator of an underlying health issue, such as insulin resistance or hormonal imbalances. Acanthosis Nigricans can affect individuals of any age, gender, or ethnicity, emphasising the importance of understanding its causes and seeking appropriate medical guidance for comprehensive care.
