Post parasite, low anemia/b12 and resulting eye bags age 30. Will they resolve naturally? (Photo)

October 26, 2015
Asked By:Megkatie in Edmonton, AB

I had a gut infection as a result of a parasite that caused a major gut infection. I was asymptomatic so I had it for probably a year without knowing. I now have very low ferritin and B12. I never had eye bags before but got them around the same time as parasite. I also have postnatal drip. Will they go away after I correct my iron/b12 issues? My thyroid is normal.

Answer: There is no proven link of eye bags caused by infection, but it is possible. Your eye bags are caused by fat that pushed forward
