A member asked:

I have intense dark circles under my eyes due to lack of sleep. are there any ways to rid of them? can i even get rid of them? why do they happen?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Allergy symptoms: Capillary leakage from histamine release due to allergies cause the swelling. With chronic capillary permeability, red blood cells leak and stain the skin leaving a darker pigmented appearance. If your treatments are not working then seeing an allergist for definitive treatment should be your next step.
