Could it be that over time, friction is causing loss of melanocytes (cells responsible for skin color; melanin) within the epidermis. Hence people with albinism have no melanin in their skin and therefore are very white and must avoid the sun. My theory on it.
Solution? bigger cups so your not continually pressing on that area, use oil to reduce friction and get some sun to increase melanocytes (melanin) back into that area.
