Here's what your face says about your health

Our facial expressions are our ‘windows to the soul’ which are capable of revealing a great deal about what we are thinking or feeling in general. From our gaze to the way we bite our lips, they say great things about our health too.

The face serves as a remarkable mirror of our overall health, reflecting clues about our internal well-being that extend beyond mere appearance. From subtle changes in complexion to more pronounced features like lines and discoloration, each aspect can signify underlying health conditions. Observing the face can reveal insights into cardiovascular health, hormone balance, nutritional status, and even emotional well-being.

Understanding these facial indicators not only aids in recognizing potential health issues early but also underscores the interconnectedness of the body's systems and the importance of holistic health care.
Yellow skin and eyes
If you have yellow skin, eyes, and nails, then you have excess amounts of bilirubin in your bloodstream which is producing the condition of jaundice. This mainly causes a yellowish appearance on your skin and the whites of the eyes start turning yellow with white nails and teeth also having the same result.
Puffy skin
If you have an unusual puffy face then you’re dealing with facial edema which means that you have unnecessary buildup of fluid in the tissues of the face. Swelling may also appear around the upper arms and neck area, and this also indicates that you have issues with the thyroid, and problems in the heart, or kidney mainly which can be a serious problem.
Dark circles
Dark circles under the eyes happen when you’re mainly tired and have a hectic lifestyle where you’re not sleeping all night, you’re drinking and smoking too much, whereas you’re simply under tons of stress, or simply dealing with anemia.
Acne and oily skin
If your pores are not cleaned and they are filled with oil sebum, then it will lead to acne and oily skin which can be an issue majorly seen in girls. These things peak when one sees hormonal imbalance or changes, with conditions like PCOS.
