is an abnormal loss of
Skin or
Mucous Membrane color. It can develop suddenly or gradually, depending on the cause. It needs to be properly distinguished from other symptoms such as whitening of the skin or hypopigmentation (loss of skin
Pigment ).
Several severe illnesses lead to general pallor of the body.
Unless it happens accompanied by pale
Lip s,
Tongue ,
Palm s,
Mouth and other regions of
Mucuous Membranes , (that is, a general pallor) it is probably not clinically significant and does not require any treatment. Pallor is more evident on the
Face and palms.
It is also important to notice that pale skin doesn't necessarily indicate disease — lack of sunlight or inherited paleness may be the reason, and it's nothing to worry about.
