What Causes Purple Color Circles Of Eye And Severe Reflux?

Hi my 6 month old has extremely purple like shiners under his eyes. He is also very pale. I have visited my dr/pedi on many occasions as my baby is sick alot he has been diagnosed with severe reflux but im not entirely convinced this is the case as my baby is sick straight after a feed and then will continue to be sick right up until his next feed 4hours later. I was advised to try him on solids so i have and he also brings that up too. Please help!!

Hai... By what you quote I think apart from reflux your kid is also having an allergy or atopy component. This is being manifest as allergic shiners beneath the eyes. But I need more info on your kid's birth weight, current weight & developmental milestones. If he's active & playing around but still throwing up... You need not worry. .Happy to help anytime. If you are happy with my reply, kindly rate it.
