Your body has a way to talk to you, and it is important to listen carefully to what it is trying to tell you, and the ways to do so are to pay attention to signs that appear on it, such as changes in the color of your body parts, or the sensations and desires you find uncommon.

So you should listen to your body signals no matter how strange it may seem, here are these signs according to the site “Bright Side”.

1. pink foot

Cosmetic manufacturers often consider a two-foot lotion that makes them look like “baby feet”, but if you notice that your feet are really pink and the skin looks fluffy and wrinkled, a blood test should be done to check blood sugar levels. These symptoms may indicate a metabolic problem, or diabetes.

The doctor you should visit: an endocrinologist.

2. Embrace

If sometimes you feel like someone is hugging you tightly or tying you around your waist, body, or legs, some tests should be done to rule out the risk of multiple sclerosis.

Perhaps you may also have an unpleasant sensation in your arms and legs, or feel as if you are wearing gloves or heavy shoes, so you should pay attention to it.

The doctor you should see: a neurologist.

3. Thinning the eyebrows

If you notice that your brows become thinner, you should see a doctor and have an examination of your thyroid gland. This may be a symptom of hypothyroidism.

5. Loss of appetite

If you suffer from sudden loss of appetite and notice that you are losing weight, this may be a symptom of a metabolic disorder. If you also have acid reflux, this may be a sign of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease.

6. Itchy skin

If you notice that you have itchy skin, this may be a sign of diabetes. But before visiting a doctor, check for the itchy spot: itching may be caused by an insect sting or an allergic reaction to a new wash or low-quality fabric. If none of these causes are itching, you should see a doctor for an examination.
