What causes dark eye rims?

1. Deficiency of kidney essence

Dark circles (gray eyelids) are often caused by long-term illness, physical weakness, lack of sleep, stimulation from smoking and drinking, excessive sexual intercourse, and other abnormal lifestyles. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that dark circles under the eyes are caused by kidney deficiency. Black is the original color of the kidneys. The eyes are nourished by the essence of the five internal organs. If you have excessive sexual intercourse and the kidney essence is deficient, the eyes will lack nourishment of essence and energy, and the black color of the kidney will float on top, so the eyes will be dull and the eye circles will be dark.

2. Kidney with blood stasis

Generally speaking, if you get dark circles under your eyes occasionally, you can simply adjust your lifestyle, avoid fatigue, and gently massage the skin around your eye sockets with your hands, and the dark circles will fade and disappear. However, if the dark circles under the eyes persist for a long time, it is a pathological condition and is often a sign of kidney and blood stasis.

3. Check in time

It is often associated with pathological diseases such as endocrine and metabolic disorders, adrenal cortex dysfunction, cardiovascular diseases and microcirculation disorders, and chronic wasting diseases. You need to go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment.

If short-term dark circles are related to poor sleep, then long-term dark circles are caused by kidney deficiency. Black is the original color of kidney, and the eyes are nourished by the essence of the five internal organs. If one has excessive sexual intercourse, the kidney essence will be depleted and the eyes will lack the nourishment of essence, and the black color of the kidney will float on top so the eyes will be dull and the eye circles will be dark.
