Dark areas between nose and eye--maybe veins? (Photo)

July 26, 2015
Asked By:cricketloo in Santa Rosa, CA

I have a dark area on each side of my nose near the eye, possibly veins? I would like to understand what it is and how to improve the situation. Some factors: 1) At 10 yo I was in a car wreck and my nose broke the windshield ( nose itself did not seem to break). 2) Lots of allergies, eczema, so eyelids are often a mess. 3) As you can see, there is a rather deep dent in each of the dark areas, which for sure makes it worse, or is that the whole problem?
