Hello, Thank you for contacting ChatDoctorI understand your concern, I am Chat Doctor, Infectious Disease Specialist answering your query. No low iron level has nothing to do with the dead black patch of skin. Low iron level causes anemia which may be associated with fatigue, breathless less, low concentration etc. Your dead Chat Doctor.  AS per your description it looks like psoriasis. But detail can only be known if the visual examination done. I advise you to get your examination done and take the treatment as per the doctors' guidance. You can use calamine lotion for skin softening, if you have itching you can use cetirizine under your doctors' guidance. Please give good moisturizing to your skin by applying petroleum jelly as it can prevent further happening of such an incident. You can ask for further queries here on bit.ly/
