Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi. I woke up yesterday and noticed the skin under my left eye, below where my tear duct is, was black and blue. I do not remember either hitting myself or my glasses being pushed into my skin. Someone I work with said her friend had this and was told it was caused by her blood pressure, which was very high. I take my medication faithfully. Should I be concerned about this or do I just not remember bumping myself? If I bump myself, I seldom remember it unless it causes extreme pain.
it is mainly hyper pigmentation. hypertension is not related to it. you are taking regular treatment for hypertension. apply sunscreen lotion and avoid expo user to sun. it is also not linked to bumping. they may cause hematoma. they are self limiting. take regular treatment and have hypertensive profile checked. have life style changes like regular exorcise morning walk and diet regulation.
