Apparently, even Google gives me more answers than these "specialists", but I'm writing this here in the hope that some of our Brothers are qualified professionals and will give valid advice.

1. My tongue has a thick white-gray coating, with tiny red spots and a long crack running through the middle. If I scrub it with my teeth it gets scraped. You can barely see the red color but my doctor said "it's fine" because no bacteria was detected during the test.
2. The dark circles under my eyes - I've had them for over 3 years and was just told to sleep enough. Now I usually sleep 8 hours a day and I've still got them, they look even deeper and the veins on my eyelids, below the eyebrow and at the corner of my eyes are getting a visible dark . I have friends who sleep 4-6 hours per night and their eye sockets are beautiful.
3. Some veins at the base of my nostrils are thin and red, like small lines, and visible. They seem broken and I want to make them disappear because they're unsightly. I asked my doctor about this and she said they're probably broken and can't be repaired.
4. Scars. I bruised my ankles some months ago (a minor wound that kept stinging a few days and then healed) but they never healed completely. This happens in other areas as well. A small cut leaves a permanent scar. If even a little blood gets out, when the wound heals I'll be left with a dark pink and sometimes swollen scar. The doctors told me they disappear for some people and not for others. But I don't feel it's normal for a bruise to remain after 6 months.
5. When I was little I had a finger biting habit which lasted for 10 years. You can imagine the damage (near infection). I stopped doing this but my skin is still broken around the nails and close to them. Like the layers don't regenerate. Skin there is stretched, still reddish and looks swollen. On one finger the cuticle stopped growing completely. I feel like they're blunt and round. It's fair to assume this also can't be changed, based on their opinion on everything.
6. Eye bags? This one's still early but I don't want it to get like the rest.

Just from your tongue description alone we are talking about a strong phlegm and heat pathogen, the exact location of which would be determined by a series of questions, in a consultation from a Chinese Medicine point of view.

There is a stickied thread at the top of this group which gives instructions as to how you can enter into such a conversation with me, and - as a Chinese Medicine Doctor - there is a high likelihood I can provide a diagnosis AND treatment plan.

I do not have the knowledge that Centralforce has but from what i read it kinda seems like you are deficient in certain minerals / vitamins, for example low levels of vitamin C can cause problems with your vascular system, if this is the case there is also a high likely hood of developing hemorrhoids, or other similar problems around that area. Besides minerals and vitamins it is a good idea to clean your liver and gallbladder since these organs takes the nutrients out of the food and delivers it to the body, if you have problems with your liver, the rest of your body will suffer and become more prone to sickness and deceases.

So i would recommend cleaning your liver and gallbladder using apple cider vinegar, apples will also help in cleaning this. Apples would also be a good supplier of vitamin C so i would recommend eating one apple a day, other fruits would be good as well. It is very important to make sure you get all of the necessary nutrients and vitamins in every day, so eat plenty of vegetables, nuts, red meat or even super foods. Do this and most problems should be alleviated.

As for your nail / finger injury, try putting a mix of virgin olive oil and garlic powder on it. This mix can do wonders especially if there is a infection, or even cancer involved. I use this mixture regularly, i also recommend it to everyone around me and everyone tells me that this mixture works like a charm. Now i do not know if this will work for your problem but it is fairly inexpensive and easy to make, besides it can do no harm to you in any way, so maybe give it a try.

Take Centralforce's advice. It sounds like you have lower vitality and are suffering yin deficiency symptoms, and problems which develop as a result of that. TCM can help stabilize this and put you on a path of growing your health.

As you may know from astrology, different souls have differing amounts of vital energy, which is why your friends look healthier than you. The good news is that you can fix this through workings, mainly through working on your solar and martian energies, as well as removing any relevant hangups or restrictions, such as what can come from Saturn or other negative karma.
