Question 2

In summer, my body temperature is normal, but I feel like my face, arms, and feet are burning and uncomfortable. Sometimes there is swelling in my feet. Sometimes my feet, arms, and face feel warm to touch. It feels like heat is being radiated from my arms, face, and feet. I remain tired all day. Pain in the muscles of my legs is always present and increases in the evening. Almost every evening, fluid discharge starts from inside my nose, and I feel pain in my eyes and throat. My nose gets blocked, making it difficult to breathe through it. My CBC is normal. My thyroid is normal. My blood sugar tests are normal. I have had no weight gain or loss in the past few months. I am taking a proper diet. Please suggest a solution for these problems?

Hi, I have severe dark circles. I have tried retinol but it did not have much effect. My mother also has this problem but mine is more prominent. I do a computer job which worsens the situation. The dark circles are brown in color. Which tests should I undergo before taking any vitamin supplements?

Dark brown under eye circles may be due to screen fatigue, hereditary causes or vitamin deficiencies. Get tested before starting supplements. Use screen breaks and eye creams. Consider getting a few tests done Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, Iron studies.
