Sometimes when my toddler has a cold or is sleep deprived he gets what looks like a black eye under one of his eyes. What is it and should I be concerned? He does not seem bothered by it, but it just looks awful.
SHINERS. Darkness under the eye is cause by congestion which cause the blood flood to be sluggish. This causes the darkness under the eyes. They are called allergic shiners because it is seen in many kids with allergy but it is not only seen with allergy.
