Question 1

thyroid meds causing fluid buildup/bag under eyes. what to do?

Accepted Answer

not likely: You don't say what kind of thyroid med you are taking.  Thyroid hormone taken for underactive thyroid will not cause swelling around the eyes, but hypothyroidism can.  Medications to lower overactive thyroids (methimazole, ptu) also are unlikely to cause eye swelling, but graves disease (the most common cause for hyperthyroidism) can affect the eyes.

Question 2

i have had fluid filled bags under eyes for the last three weeks and have tried every thing to get rid of but nothing seems to help is this a medical ?

Accepted Answer

Perhaps...: Tissue below lower lids r loosest in  body, and anything that causes swelling of facial tissue will first be seen under the eyes.  If you are a healthy 42 year old, the problems may be an allergy reaction to something in your environment; a state of fatigue because you haven't slept properly for a while; a recent weight gain, where you are retaining water. Try used tea bags? C doc if persists.

Question 6

how can i remove dark bags under eyes?

Accepted Answer

Varies by cause: Dark circles under the eyes can be caused by brown pigment in the skin, thinning of the skin so that the blood shows through, or by the shadow cast by a "bag" under the eye, or by a combination. The skin can be lightened by microdermabrasion and skin lighteners. The bag can be surgically improved with a lower lid blepharoplasty. Not much to offer except concealer for thin skin. Good luck!
