Dark Elbows!?

Question

O.k. so for some reason or another my elbows seemed to turn a dark color and are rougher then the rest of my smooth skin. Are there any natural rememdies I can use to get rid of this? I've tried lemon juice, lot's of lotion and even a pumice stone which made it worse! Please help! It's embarassing!

Answer 1

OK first darkening in the inner thighs, neck, elbows, knees could be a sign of diabetes

you could have psoriasis if it is psoriasis you will have to get a medicated cream

if you cant afford a doctor or just prefer natural remedies read this: the skin of knees and elbows are generally devoid of oil glands. That is why it gets dry so fast.

Because of this reason elbows and knees get dark.

It is a plain grimy from built up dead cells and dirt. They give an ugly light if they are not properly cared.
CURES TO REVEAL YOUR BEAUTY:

*

Apply coconut oil on your elbows and knees to remove the dryness.
*

Use of pumice stone is a good cure.
*

Knees and elbows should be cleaned daily with mild stone. Apply moisturizer after taking bath.
*

Apply a mixture of lime and juice on elbows and knee.
*

Rub cucumber on your elbows and knees. Lemon juice cam also be used.
*

Rub olive oil on elbows and knees.
*

Take a lemon and cut it into two pieces. Keep both the pieces below each elbow. This will bleach the dark elbows.
*

Make a paste of Bean flour and lime juice and apply on elbows and knees. Keep it there for 10-15 minutes and then wash it off.

Answer 2

The elbows appear darker when the arm is straight due to the excess skin required to bend the arm. If you paint a circle on a canvas, then bunch up that canvas into the center, the center will appear darker than the rest. The same concept applies with the elbow. We need that excess skin for free movement. Because of that movement, it does not remain as smooth as other parts of our skin. Unless it's excessively dry, chapping and hurting, you have nothing to be concerned about.

Answer 3

Get Crisco and be conscious it on your elbows and knees, then get some tube socks and reduce the finished off and slide them up over your legs and fingers on your elbows and knees and go away it there for a at the same time as. attempt this for a pair days/weeks and it rather works large!!
