What is the reason for dark circles under the eyes?

Dark circles may also be related to nose problems.

Do not stay in a smoky environment to avoid extra stimulation to your nose; at the same time, be careful not to let cold air irritate your trachea in the morning and evening, which could cause allergic sneezing; don't sneeze too hard, as that would compress the skin's capillaries.
