Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have very stubborn dark circles around my eyes especially on the inner corners and my lips have turned dark too.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Dark circles under the eye are caused by fatigue. Dark circles may merely be shadows cast by puffy lids of eyes or hollows under the eyes, actually that are due to as a normal part of aging. Common causes are mainly allergies, atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, pigmentation irregularities, rubbing or scratching your eyes, sun exposure, heredity, etc.
Treatment depends on the cause. It is not a medical problem. Self-care is also needed like cold compression, the elevation of the head with more pillows while sleeping, and extra sleep. Black lips are due to anemia, cyanosis, cigarette smoking, alcohol abuse, and regular narcotic use may all cause discoloration of the lips. Melasma, dermatitis, jaundice, dry lips, sun exposure, medication, eating disorders, toxins, and poisoning. Homeopathic treatment includes Acid Phos (Acidum Phosphoricum), Ferrum Metallicum are homeopathic medicines helpful to remove the darkness of the skin.
Patient's Query
Thank you doctor,
But I am supposed to get married within four months. Can this problem be cured?
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
It is not a problem to relieve your problem, so you have to use ointments like Berberis AQ (Berberis aquifolium Q, Sandalwood, Turmeric) composition and frequent washing of face as many times as possible and take good sleep. And use Natrum muriaticum 200 potency once five days 10 pills. Please report to me after 15 days.
