Do not, I repeat, DO NOT apply lemon to your skin ever. The PH is way too acidic.
What you're describing however is just a consequence of particular skintone. I take it in your case you have a warm/olive skintone? This is caused as a result of the skin producing a melanin called eumelanin, whereas people who has the reverse pinkish discolouration are affected by pheomelanins.

There isn't really any way to 'cure' it per-say because it's not really a condition, but if it bothers you that then exfoliation to remove a build-up of skin cells is good and you should continue that. Barring that the only other option is bleaching.

Kind of. You can't really see the full shape yet because I'm all bound up in a cast that isn't coming off until the 24th, but from what I can see so far it's a definite improvement imo.
