| Me-Me has dark spots My Me-Me has dark patches in her underarms where she was scratching. I have treated her with frontline topspot, and she might be scratching from that even. Has anyone else ever had a skin problem like this? She has very delicage skin and I'm thinking it might even be brusing from her scratching too much. The spots aren't sensative. She is going next Thursday to the vet to have him look just in case. I bought dog cortisone and it helped her not itch, but I don't like the blotches. Any suggestions?

| Kitty has those spots on her too. I can't remember what the vet called it and he didn't give any explanation on why she has them but he told me not to worry about it and there's nothing I could do for it.

| I used to work for a dermatologist. It may be something my doc called "the ash after the rash" That means anytime there is irritation of any sort, there will be discoloration at that sight. He would stress to people that it usually takes a long, long time for the darker or discolored areas to get back to normal after any type of irritation. As long as there is no redness, or weepiness or yellowish scaly stuff! This info may have nothing to do with your baby, but I thought I'd share anyway!!

| Thanks for the advise. It sounds like what Me-Me has. All of this advice makes me feel better.
