Dark circle around eyes

2024-01-31 17:46:09
My son is 6 years old and weighs 15kg. Sleeping pattern is around 8hrs (10PM to 7PM). Watching mobile for around one hour after returning from school. Vegetarian only can include eggs. Since 2 days, I have been noticing dark circles around his eyes. What could be the reason? Anemic or cold or nutrition deficiency? He had a cold for 2 weeks , now rarely coughing. Please advise. Need to take any test or should I notice for some more days after changing his diet. He is active and normal only.
