Hi doctor,
I recently went to the doctor due to hyperpigmentation under my eyes. They told me it was allergic shiners. My question is, how do I get rid of the pigmentation? I am currently taking Cetrizine and Fluticasone Propionate.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Avoid steroid use. Attach a clinical picture to assess so I can guide you accordingly.
Regards.
