pallor
The color of the skin and mucous membranes is striking and easily traceable feature. A typical “healthy color” skin is determined by an optimum ratio of skin pigment melanin, the natural yellow dye known as carotenoids (largely accepted in food), and color red blood – hemoglobin.Participation of hemoglobin is determined not only by its amount in the blood, but also the degree of vascularization of skin capillaries. Perfusion may be congenitally inferior to other people and not necessarily be a sign of disease. The color of the mucous membranes is the amount of hemoglobin depend disproportionately more than do the skin.
Pale skin, together with sticky sweat, accelerated heart beat, confusion or unconsciousness corresponds to collapse or shock, call an ambulance.
For serious conditions can also accompany pale skin fever, sepsis (a condition in which the entire body is congested products or parts of microbes) or so. Hypertensive crisis (sudden rise in blood pressure to extremely high levels).
Generalized pallor of the skin and mucous membranes over a long period of time may indicateanemia or lack of red blood pigment (anemia). Anemia usually has other symptoms such as rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath during exercise, dizziness (especially when standing up from a lying) or often referred to “tinnitus.”
General practitioner or internist will take blood samples and will investigate the causes.
Paleness of body parts (limbs or heads) can also be caused by a narrowing (stenosis) of large afferent arteries.
Furthermore, it is certainly worth mentioning various skin affections, as evidenced by the faded spots on the body differently. May be both very skin disease (simple pigmentation disorders, infections, reactions to chemicals) or of associated symptoms of disease (infection, less frequent autoimmune diseases and malignancies – e.g. Hodgkin’s disease). Consult your GP who will assess the need for further expert examination.
