@function_first: Dark circles under your child’s eyes aren’t always “just allergies.” 👀💙 Often called venous pooling, under-eye darkness can be a sign that something isn’t right with breathing or sleep. Allergies can absolutely play a role, but so can mouth breathing, enlarged tonsils or adenoids, tongue-tie, or palate shape. That’s why airway evaluations look at the whole picture — not just teeth. When sleep and breathing are affected, these signs tend to show up on the face first. The good news is this is something parents can spot early. If you’re noticing dark circles, mouth breathing, or chronic congestion, it’s worth taking a closer look. If you’re unsure what you’re seeing, I’m here to help you sort through it. 💙 #AirwayHealth #DarkCircles #SleepDisorderedBreathing

My granddaughter is seven months old and I noticed that some morning she wakes up and she has dark circles on her eyes. I have noticed that sometimes she sleeps with her mouth open. And also sometimes she snores a little. At this age is there anything that we can do or should do? This is something that has been asked of her pediatrician but has not been addressed so I’m just wanting to be more proactive. Let me know your thoughts thank you.

My son has had these circles for years. We’ve seen an allergist, several doctors. I’ve suspected airway for a long time and started talking to a myofunctional SLP (remote - none near us in rural Hawaii). Would treatment be out of pocket? Is palette expansion the only option or are there other things that can be done?

This is my daughter - but there’s nothing to be done until she’s at least 3 I’ve been told by our local myofunctional SLP. I’m so worried about her
