What Causes Darkness Around Eyebrows And Cheeks?
Hi, I am writing for my hubby, last night all of a sudden his eyebrows, forehead, cheeks got really dark in colour. He did experience mild pain in his eyes. In the morning the dark colour disappeared mostly, but we can still see some kind darkness around his eyebrows and cheeks.
