What Causes Itching And Burning Dark Spot Near The Eye?
I m having a deep dark spot just near my right eye and its spreading very slowly, there s slight itching and sometimes there a mild burning sensation there. This dark spot occurred one day suddenly Wats the reason? Is there anything to worry about it?
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of itching and burning dark spot near the eye. Well there can be many reasons for dark spots under eyes like deprivation of sleep , dehydration , excessive exposure to sun and fatigue . But in your case it seems to me that probable reason for dark spots is post inflammatory hyper pigmentation . I would suggest you to wash your face with face wash containing benzoyl peroxide twice a day and then apply cream containing azelaic acid which is a cereal extract and totally safe for use . Also apply vitamin E oil before going to bed. If condition doesn't get better in a month then consult dermatologist for proper examination and rule out other causes . Doctor may recommend chemical peeling and laser therapy.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
