Monitoring your health is important. Sometimes the body gives early warning signs that something is off. Pay attention and seek medical advice if you notice any of the following:
-
Crawling, creeping sensation in legs – Could indicate restless leg syndrome, a condition that often causes discomfort at night.
-
Muscle twitches – Involuntary twitches or spasms in areas like thighs, calves, hands, arms, belly, ribcage, or feet. Can be triggered by stress, fatigue, or other factors.
-
White pupil (Leukocoria) – When the pupil appears white instead of black. More common in children but can also occur in adults. Requires prompt evaluation by an eye doctor.
-
White fingers – Often linked to Raynaud’s disease, where small arteries narrow, reducing blood flow, causing fingers or toes to feel cold and numb, usually triggered by cold or stress.
-
Puffy face – Swelling in the face can result from injury, infection, or allergies. If it occurs frequently or without injury, it could signal a more serious health problem affecting the face, neck, or throat.
