A member asked:
Really bad pinkish-purplish discolorations under eyes. only 17! what could it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergies: Allergies and heredity can be the cause. The skin below the eye is very thin and in some the blood vessels are close to the surface giving the appearance of the dark circles under the eyes. Rest, cool soaks can help but cannot completely get rid of the problem.
