What Causes Dark Circles Under Eyes In An Infant?

My one month old has really dark circles under his eyes. When he was born I notices he was chocking like on fluid and his eyes were realy puffy. As if they didn t suction his pasage well. Well now the puffiness is gone but the eyes are darkend and sometimes he still gags and chokes. Should I cotact an ENT specialist for help?

Hi.... I understand your concern. If the baby's weight is normal then I don't think you should worry. But if he is not gaining weight appropriately, then I suggest you consult with your pediatrician first and then on his advicee consult other Specialist.
