Chinese medicine pays attention to looking and hearing, and judges diseases by observing a person's face and shape, such as abnormal yellowing, blackness, pallor, protruding eyeballs and puffiness of the eyelids. The above symptoms are not small problems, and there may be major diseases hidden behind them, which need to be paid great attention to.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="2" What changes in the face should you be wary of when >? </h1>
1. Yellow face
The skin on the whites of the eyes, face and body is yellow, and the urine is like a strong brown color, and there is a good chance that it is a liver and gallbladder disease. The metabolite of dead red blood cells is bilirubin, which is impaired in the metabolism of bilirubin in patients with hepatobiliary disease, which raises the level of bilirubin in the blood, thereby yellowing the mucous membranes of the skin; however, yellowing of the face may also be hemolytic anemia. Further examinations are needed in the gastroenterology and infection departments to check for diseases.
2, the face is dark
Dull and dull, dry, rough and inelastic skin, chronic liver disease should be highly suspected. Patients with chronic liver disease suffer from impaired liver function, which affects endocrine and causes pigments to be deposited on the skin, resulting in dull and dull skin.
3. Pale face
Pale face and lips, yellowish and dull face, equally pale and bloodless when the lower eyelid is opened, accompanied by general weakness and fatigue, indicating anemia. Because anemia reduces the amount of hemoglobin in the blood, the circulation of blood to the skin and around the hands and feet is reduced, resulting in pale skin mucosa.
4, red light on the face
There is no exercise, emotional agitation and drinking and fever in the quiet state, but the face is still red for a long time, which is likely to be high blood pressure and heart disease. In such patients, the burden on the heart increases in the early stage, causing the heart to expand, increasing the contractility, causing the head and face blood vessels to dilate and congestive and the face to flush. If the cheekbones are unusually dark red, or if they are symptoms of rheumatic heart disease.
5. Prosthesis
Abnormal protrusion of the eyeball, excitement or panic, irritability, and shortness of temper are most likely hyperthyroidism. Patients with hyperthyroidism have strong thyroid hormone secretion, abnormal sympathetic excitement, and impaired ophthalmos activity, resulting in protrusion of the eyeball.
6. Eyelid puffiness
I didn't drink much water before going to bed, but when I woke up in the morning, my face and eyelids swelled, sometimes edema developed to the ankle and calf area, and after finger presses, I let go of the sunken, which is most likely a kidney disease. Because kidney disease patients have decreased kidney function, water metabolism is disrupted, and a large amount of protein is lost, resulting in edema.
7. Face emaciation
Recently, there is no deliberate weight loss, but the reason for the weight loss in a short period of time is unknown, accompanied by emaciation of the face, malignancy should be highly suspected, and further hospitals need to be further screened to rule out the possibility of cancer.
8. Full moon face
The face is round like a full moon, the double chin is more obvious, the skin is flushed and accompanied by small beards and acne, and Cushing syndrome should be vigilant, which is caused by long-term use of glucocorticoids, and excessive glucocorticoid secretion will make the fat distribution abnormal, resulting in fat accumulation in the face and abdomen, thus triggering the above symptoms.
9. The nose and chin become larger
Suddenly the nose chin is found to be enlarged, and acromegaly should be highly vigilant, which is often accompanied by a widening of the frontal and nose, abnormal prominence of cheekbones, rough and thickened skin, and gradual enlargement of the hands and feet. Such patients have tumors in the pituitary gland that stimulate growth hormone secretion, which slowly changes the face and limbs.
