Discolored skin Color changes to the skin can sometimes indicate underlying illness. "Skin sometimes looks gray, sallower, in people with underlying chronic illness," says Dr. Brod. Yellowish- or orangish-looking skin can be a sign of kidney or liver disease.

Though skin is on the outside of your body, it can be a surprisingly clear window to what’s happening on the inside. "You can tell a lot about somebody by looking at their skin," says Bruce Brod, MD, FAAD, a dermatologist on faculty at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. Perhaps most obviously, the state of your skin can suggest your living habits to a dermatologist’s trained eye. "One of the first things a dermatologist can tell by looking at someone is how much outdoor exposure they’ve had by the appearance of sun damage for their age," says Dr. Brod. "Things like wrinkles, spots, uneven pigmentation, and loss of elasticity." Skin may also be a giveaway that people are sleep deprived. "Droopy, saggy, dark circles under the eyes can be a clue to fatigue," says Steven Daveluy, MD, FAAD, a dermatologist with the Wayne State University School of Medicine in Dearborn, Michigan. Skin can even tell dermatologists if people are drinking enough fluids to stay hydrated. "One of the signs of dehydration is sunken-looking skin around the eyes," says Dr. Daveluy. "Dry skin can also indicate dehydration." And smokers’ skin often gives away their habit. "The skin of smokers is often more pale or sallow in color, and they’ll have wrinkling around the lips," says Dr. Brod. But even more than revealing lifestyle habits, skin can also help doctors diagnose many illnesses. Your board-certified dermatologist can help discover whether the following symptoms may be due to something more serious.

Moisturizing hand creams or ointments can usually take care of this common problem. But, sometimes the problem isn’t so common. "A condition called dermatomyositis can mimic hand dermatitis caused by irritation or overwashing, with red patches on the back of the hands," says Dr. Brod. "Dermatomyositis is an inflammatory, autoimmune disease similar to lupus." A dermatologist can tell when irritated-appearing hands are really something more.

Read More »There are a lot of reasons why your skin might break out in a rash. Common rashes include contact dermatitis—a reaction to something your skin touches that can usually be easily treated with topical therapy and avoiding the substance that triggered the rash. "But sometimes even rashes that are easy to treat can indicate changes to overall health," says Dr. Daveluy. Other times, rashes appear as a symptom of skin diseases that can affect your overall health. Having psoriasis, for example, increases the risk of having heart disease and other conditions. And, of course, there are distinctive rashes like the target-shaped rash of Lyme disease and the butterfly rash across the face that many lupus patients develop. "There are a few things that might be clues that your rash is more serious," says Dr. Daveluy. "If it doesn’t respond to treatment, and if it’s affecting more than your skin—for instance, if you have joint pains or fever—that may indicate that there’s something going on internally." If you notice a change in your skin, there’s no need to panic. Most skin disorders don’t signal serious illness and are treatable. But do schedule an appointment with a board-certified dermatologist to find out what’s going on. Your skin may be trying to tell you something. Look for the designation FAAD (Fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology) to be certain you are getting care from a board-certified dermatologist.
