The skin of patients with hepatitis often appear yellow, red, or even black. Color changes shows that the severity of the conditions, it reflects the different stages of liver disease, hepatitis condition of judgment change downturn.
Yellow "hot and humid intersection, the disease also occurs." My earliest Medical Books "Yellow Emperor" of this description, that thousands of years ago our medical people have found a type of skin disease Huang - jaundice (that is today referred to hepatitis and cholecystitis, etc.). The medicine will be divided into jaundice and Huang Yin-Yang Huang. Yang Huang that distinctive yellow color such as orange, a shorter course, the heat, empirical; Yin Huang refers to dark yellow, the longer course, the cold syndrome, the deficiency. Different yellow reveal the different stages of the disease and treatment of different rules. Who had never had hepatitis, the chills, fever, nausea, vomiting, liver pain, extreme fatigue, a sudden yellow eyes and skin, that is suffering from acute jaundice hepatitis. Patients with chronic hepatitis jaundice if that condition was worsening in active hepatitis, liver function and then aminotransferase will generally not normal, serious damage to liver cells. Patients then must actively treatment, adequate rest and attention to nutrition.
The Red human estrogen inactivation mainly by the liver. Long-term liver function well, will lead to savings of estrogen in vivo. Estrogen is the expansion of the role, there can skin a spider shaped like a red vascular moles. Some patients with chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis of the face, neck, shoulder, back, chest and into tablets will telangiectasia, puts these positions red fishes. Some patients with chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis palms and the soles of their feet in red spots and patches, medically known as liver palms, but also in savings of estrogen results. Red color in patients with hepatitis, liver function is that long-term serious damage.
Blackening black skin, especially the face, blackening around the eyes, chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with liver function serious harm to an important feature. Zhang Zhongjing "JinKuiYaoYue" will be divided into jaundice and jaundice, Copeland yellow, female labor yellow, yellow and black liquor yellow five categories, will have separate skin blackening hepatitis as a category. Black snails generally serious condition. Medical Gehong Jin Dynasty, said: "cure jaundice, a yellow, more black death." Jaundice is the meaning of fair treatment, but if a black mud, then had relaxed the medicine. Of course, today's medicine and Gehong The times we live in than to have fundamentally different from black mud has not hopeless. But if patients with hepatitis skin blackening and must not treated lightly and it should immediately identify the disease, and aggressive treatment.
Close observation of patients with hepatitis skin color, the timely discovery conditions change, for the early treatment of major significance. Therefore, the medical staff, hepatitis patients and their families should be the time to themselves, relatives, "Yan Review of Color", and grasp the condition changes.
