Anyone Have Red Circles Under Your Eyes?

I haven't always had red circles under my eyes, popped up a few years ago...I thought maybe they are allergy shiners, but I googled and the pics showed what looked like bruises..mine don't look like bruises just redness. Just curious.

my doc said I was iron deficient at one time but levels were fine a few months ago. I'm going to have iron levels checked again, but wonder if it could be from iron deficiency instead?

I've had purple colour under my eyes for ever. It's reddish on the edges but closer to the bruising colour over all. I hope someone else can give you more answers. :)

Generally it is dark circles under the eyes and according to this site I found it's a Vitamin B12 defiency.

Sometimes mine are red and sometimes they are black. I did just confirm a vitamin B deficiency.

I also have red eyes.

Mine aren't related to a B12 deficiency (I think) because my B12 exceeded the normal range. I am apparently not iron deficient either.... Everyone presents so differently...

My 3 year old had red circles under her eyes all summer before her diagnosis. They definitely got worse as her symptoms increased to frequent vomitting. After her diagnosis in sept.and immediately after going gluten free they disappeared. No vitamin defeciency found. Of course we associated the eyes with gluten, but an allergist with CHOP assured us it is not a symptom of celiac. I am not convinced. Today she had red eyes and said her tummy hurt.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Russ H · Posted

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
