in #body6 years ago

The hands are from the first parts of the body that give birth to our age. But their condition may also suggest a potential health problem. See 6 cases where you should consult a specialist and pay attention to your lifestyle.

Red palms

According to experts, red palms may be a sign of liver problems, especially if you are over 50 years of age. Usually flushing occurs in the outer edge of the palm. The possible cause of the red palms is a change in the hormonal balance that causes the blood vessels to expand. Rheumatoid arthritis may also cause redness of the palms.

Sweating the hands

There are several possible reasons for sweaty palms:

  • excessive sweating
  • stress
  • overactive thyroid gland
    Try to limit alcohol consumption, reduce stress and of course consult a doctor.

Loss of sensation and tingling

Sometimes we wake up with the feeling that we have lost sensitivity in certain parts of our body, and when we move, we feel a slight numbness that passes quickly. Usually this is due to the pressure of the sensory nerve. Tingling is the time when the nerves have to go back to work.

But in some cases, these symptoms in the hands may be a sign of a more serious problem, such as cervical osteochondrosis, carpal tunnel syndrome, venous thrombosis of the limbs, injury to the brachial plexus, anemia or diabetes.

Dry hands

The most common causes of dry skin are dehydration and deficiency of estrogen, which are often seen during menopause. Also pay attention to your daily habits - how to clean your home, whether you use gloves, often have water.

Skin dryness may also be due to the fact that you do not protect your hands while you are home and do not hydrate them regularly with cream. In addition to consulting a dermatologist, add more fish, nuts and seeds to your menu.

Shaking hands

The shaking of the hands should not be overlooked. It may suggest that it is time to reduce the consumption of alcohol and caffeinated beverages, perhaps you have more stress in your daily life, Parkinson's disease.

Weak nails

Poor or brittle nails can be a symptom of zinc deficiency. Zinc is one of the most important minerals for our health, which promotes wound healing, helps cells to divide and strengthen the immune system. Add to your menu foods rich in zinc, oatmeal, pumpkin seeds, nuts and meat.
