How to read palmistry and health diseases

Palmistry is closely related to our health and diseases. We can see our health and disease conditions by observing our palms. So in palmistry, how do we look at the relationship between palmistry and health and diseases? Below are some related articles compiled by the editor, let’s take a look!

How to read palmistry and health diseases

An old Chinese doctor teaches you how to read palmistry and health diseases

First, judge whether the body functions normally from the color of the palm

1. Ruddy and shiny - normal, good body function

2. Dark and withered - no energy, poor immunity

3. Pale and bloodless - Qi and blood deficiency, women often have anemia

4. Excessively rosy and lustrous - high blood lipids, blood sugar and blood viscosity.

Secondly, the colors of different areas on the palm are different, and the properties they represent are also different.

1. White – represents inflammation

2. Red: represents severe inflammation or bleeding spots

3. Cyan - indicates poor circulation

4. Brown: indicates old age or chronic disease

5. Black: represents critical illness

The above picture shows that different parts of the body are represented by different colors of palm lines, which will indicate different diseases.

Third, the blue veins on the palm are small veins, which also represent different health information.

1. The fewer blue veins appear on your palm, the healthier your body is.

2. Blue veins on the side of the thumb indicate insufficient blood supply to the head, resulting in frequent headaches and dizziness.

3. Blue veins at the base of the thumb indicate sclerosis of the heart arteries. The thicker the blue veins, the longer and more serious the disease course, and the patient will often feel discomfort in the precordial area; thinner and shallower the blue veins, the shorter the illness duration. Most patients usually do not have obvious discomfort in the heart, but will feel some chest tightness when they are tired or in a bad mood, which will improve after rest.

4. Blue veins on the outer side of the thenar eminence indicate irregular heartbeats, with heartbeats that are not consistent in speed, and sometimes premature beats, palpitations, and panic.

5. Blue veins at the bottom of the thenar eminence indicate that there is a lot of cold and dampness in the body, which has affected the heart and joints, and is also accompanied by symptoms of back pain and joint pain.

6. If there are blue veins on the outside of the index finger, and the blue veins are long and dark in color, it means that you had poor health when you were a child, did not eat well, had severe malnutrition, weak digestive function, malnutrition, often got sick, and had a very weak constitution.

7. If there is a blue vein in the middle of the middle finger, it means you often suffer from headaches and dizziness. If there are blue veins on the outside of your thumb, it means that you have suffered from headaches and dizziness since childhood, which is mostly caused by congenital deficiency resulting in insufficient blood supply to the brain.

8. Blue veins at the base of the middle finger indicate cerebral arteriosclerosis.

9. The appearance of blue veins on the outer side of the little finger indicates congenital kidney deficiency. When they are young, they are prone to bedwetting, and when they grow up, they will also have kidney problems, and their waist and legs will feel weak and sore. Similarly, the longer and deeper the veins, the more serious the condition.

10. The area below the middle finger and above the palm is the neck. If blue veins appear, it means there is a problem with the thyroid gland, or there is chronic pharyngitis and what Chinese medicine calls plum pit qi, which is a sign of blocked neck meridians.

11. Blue veins appear on the thenar and inside the lifeline, indicating an allergic constitution, prone to drug allergies and food allergies, and prone to skin diseases such as eczema and psoriasis (Feng Shui www.azg168.cn)

How to read palmistry and health problems

1. Changes in the color of your palms and fingers

People who are physically and mentally healthy have pink palms. If the red color becomes darker, it means poor heart function; if red lines appear on the hands, it indicates high blood pressure, rheumatism or heart disease; if the fingertips are pale, it shows blood flow obstruction; if the palm suddenly changes to reddish brown, it may be a sign of cerebral hemorrhage; if red spots appear on the palm, it indicates hepatitis or diabetes; if the palm turns yellow or brown, you may have liver disease; if congested red or dark purple patches are found on the thenar, hypothenar and fingertips in the yellow palm, cirrhosis or liver cancer may occur. If you have kidney disease or anemia, your palms are prone to turn blue. If the blue veins on the palms are obvious, also called venous distension, it means that there is feces stagnation in the intestines. If the palms are withered and yellow, it means that the large intestine is not functioning properly, with symptoms such as abdominal distension and belching. If the palms are light yellow, dry and dull, it means that the spleen and stomach are weak and qi and blood are insufficient. If the palms are yellow with a hint of blue, it means that the stomach is cold and accompanied by pain. If small white papules appear on the back of the hand, it suggests that the cholesterol is too high.

2. Thin hands vs. fat hands

It is normal to have thin hands and thin people. If the hands are thinner than normal and there are gaps between the fingers, it means that the digestive system is weak, the character is cowardly, and the nerves are weak. If the hand muscles are thin and cold, it is mostly due to insufficient Qi and blood or yang deficiency; if the hand muscles are thin and hot, it is mostly due to yin deficiency and hyperactivity of fire or internal injury and fever.

A fat body and fat hands are normal. If you are a slender beauty but have fat and swollen hands, you should be careful about kidney and heart diseases; if a person has thin arms but fat hands, it is fat accumulation and you may have high blood pressure and high blood lipids.

3. Cold hands vs. hot hands

The temperature of your hands should be the same as your face. The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine records a large number of observations on hands, such as if the palm is hot, the internal organs are hot, and if the palm is cold, the internal organs are cold. If the palms are hot, it is an early manifestation of intense heart fire, internal accumulation of dampness and heat, and disharmony between the gallbladder and stomach; if the backs of the hands are hotter than the palms, it is mostly a fever and acute inflammation; if the temperature of the palms is higher than that of the palms, it is mostly high blood lipids or high blood pressure; if the palms are hot and dry, it is hyperthyroidism; if the palms are red and hot, it is mostly inflammation and heat in the blood.

Cold hands, or what the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine calls "cold palms and cold internal organs," are usually a sign of illness or poor physical condition. If all your hands are cold, it is mostly due to yin deficiency or qi and blood deficiency; if a patient with a high fever has cold hands, it is a dangerous sign of impending convulsions and coma; if the temperature of your palms is lower than that of your face, it is mostly due to heart failure or heart failure.

In addition, if the palms are hot and the hands often sweat, this is caused by Yin blood deficiency; if the palms sweat coldly and the hands and feet are cold, this is caused by Qi deficiency or Yang deficiency; if only one palm sweats, it is mostly due to Qi and blood stagnation and meridian obstruction; if the palms sweat like beads and continuously, and the limbs are cold, it is a sign of Yang Qi exhaustion; if the palms sweat and the fever does not subside, it is mostly caused by internal heat.

4. Big hands vs. small hands

It is normal for the size of your hands to be proportional to your height, weight, and body shape. If you are a small beauty but have disproportionately large hands, you should be careful of sudden illness - cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, bone and joint diseases; if you are a woman with small hands, your heart is small and your hands are small. Weak heart function does not necessarily mean heart disease, but it can cause low blood pressure, dizziness, palpitations, fatigue, weak uterine function, dysmenorrhea, irregular menstruation, and an unhappy sex life.

5. Finger length

The proportions of two fingers are determined in the womb and remain unchanged throughout life. Scientific experiments have shown that estimating the probability of heart disease in adults is more accurate than waist-hip ratio, body mass index, etc. which are affected by age.

Men with longer ring fingers have relatively higher levels of the sex hormone testosterone propionate in their bodies, which can prevent men from developing heart disease. However, young heart disease patients with shorter ring fingers have lower levels of testosterone propionate.

The different proportions of finger length are related to the level of sex hormones in the body, and even the influence and growth of sex hormones before birth. Finger ratios are related to women's reproductive capacity and the incidence of breast cancer; men with asymmetrical hands secrete fewer sperm; and a ring finger that is longer than the index finger is a sign of musical talent.

Women whose index fingers are longer than their ring fingers have higher fertility, are more modest, more sensitive, relatively prone to breast cancer, and less willing to take risks; men have lower fertility, stronger verbal expression skills, less aggressiveness, and poorer sense of direction.

If the ring finger is longer than the index finger, women will have relatively weaker fertility, be overconfident, be relatively less likely to develop breast cancer, and be very risk-taking; men will have stronger fertility, weaker verbal expression skills, stronger aggression, be better at math, and be more likely to suffer from autism.

Of course, the manifestations of the palms vary greatly, and most diseases can be manifested in the hands, but there will also be individual differences!

How to read palmistry to find out the health and disease

Look at the color of your hand

The color of the skin is closely related to the nutritional status of the skin, subcutaneous tissue, blood vessels, etc. The color of the hands and palms can also reflect the status of the skin, subcutaneous tissue and subcutaneous blood flow, so observing the color of the hands has certain medical significance. The hands of a normal person are bright in color, with the palms being light red or pink, moist, shiny, elastic, and even in tone. The color of human hands also has regularity.

Skin color is closely related to the nutritional status of the skin, subcutaneous tissue, blood vessels, etc.

For example, when we are young, our palms are bright in color and have abundant blood circulation. As we age, their color and luster gradually deepen. In old age, the color of our palms becomes less fresh and shiny, and sometimes becomes rough. This is the result of natural aging of the skin and has nothing to do with disease. There are also some subtle changes in the color of hands among different groups of people, different races and different workers. Once the normal color and moisture are lost, it is believed that disease may have occurred. Here are some commonly observed colors:

1. Yellow

The palms are light yellow and shiny, which is the normal color for Chinese people. The yellow mentioned here refers to the weight gain compared to the normal yellow. The appearance of yellow indicates that the amount of blood in the subcutaneous blood vessels is reduced, or that the blood is not full, or it is an external manifestation of skin malnutrition. If the palms are yellow, there may be some chronic diseases, such as chronic atrophic gastritis, chronic anemia, chronic colitis, malnutrition, etc.; if the palms are light yellow, but the skin becomes hard, inelastic, smooth and dry, you should pay more attention to congenital dominant chromosomal abnormalities, and check whether the child's external genitalia is abnormal, such as whether the boy has underdeveloped testicles or a short penis, and ask if there are similar conditions in the family, and recommend going to the hospital for a chromosome test;

The skin of the palm is very yellow, or to be more precise, grayish yellow, and dull. At the same time, you can also see that the skin of the waist and other parts of the body is also very yellow, gray and dull, which means that there is bile excretion disorder in the human body, such as chronic bile duct, bile duct stenosis, gallbladder, common bile duct cancer, pancreatic head cancer, etc., bile excretion is blocked, bile accumulates in the body for a long time, soaking the skin and causing yellow; or in the late stage of certain visceral tumors, long-term chronic poisoning, the palms can also be very yellow; golden yellow, the palm color is bright yellow and bright, which is more common in patients with early liver disease, such as acute icteric infectious hepatitis, drug poisoning liver damage, etc., so when you find that your palms are golden yellow, you should seek medical attention in time and get a timely diagnosis.

The skin on the palm is yellow, or more precisely, grayish yellow.

2. Red

The redness of the palm indicates that the subcutaneous blood vessels in the palm are full and the blood flow is accelerated. If the palm color exceeds the normal light red and pink, it indicates the presence and development of disease. If the palm is too red or bright red, it indicates high blood pressure, hypertensive crisis, or a tendency to cerebral hemorrhage, especially if there are symptoms of high blood pressure in the past and the palms turn red or there is a burning sensation in the palms, it may be a precursor to cerebral hemorrhage and should be treated in time to prevent accidents. If the palm was originally red and now turns dark purple, it means that the subcutaneous blood vessels in the palm had abundant blood flow and were relatively full, but were obstructed by the heart, causing blood flow to slow down and the blood oxygen saturation in the blood vessels to decrease and become dark purple. This is a dangerous sign, indicating that heart disease may have occurred and the condition is critical. Rescue and treatment should be given as soon as possible. Do not move the patient around to prevent sudden death.

3. White

This color indicates poor blood circulation in the hands, insufficient subcutaneous blood flow, or low hemoglobin. White or pale coloration of different areas of the skin on the palms and fingers also indicates different disease groups. If the light skin on the palm turns white, it is common in anemia, blood system diseases, chronic hemorrhagic diseases, malnutrition diseases, etc.; if the palm skin turns white again, it may be due to lung disease or infectious disease in the body; pale index finger indicates hepatobiliary disease; pale middle finger indicates cardiovascular disease; pale ring finger indicates kidney and genital dysfunction; pale little finger indicates digestive tract dysfunction, etc.

4. Purple

Dark red or purple spots on the palm are common in liver diseases, such as chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis and other chronic liver diseases; bluish purple is a sign of palm congestion, indicating blood circulation disorder in this area, which is common in critically ill patients with severe infection, heart failure, shock, etc.

Dark red or purple spots on the palms, common in liver disease

5. Green

Green skin on the palms is often seen in anemia and gastrointestinal diseases, such as indigestion, chronic diarrhea, aplastic anemia, etc.; turquoise indicates cardiovascular diseases, such as heart failure, large arteritis, atherosclerosis, myocarditis, etc.

6. Black

Black represents kidney diseases, such as chronic nephritis, uremia and other diseases. In short, observing the color changes of the skin on people's hands can also help us understand diseases.

Watching the hand

Although the shape of human hands has evolved for millions of years, it has not changed much. This refers to the overall shape of the palm and fingers. The shape of a person's hands is constantly changing for each individual, but it is difficult to detect for those who do not pay attention. This tiny change in shape can predict disease, and it will definitely be beneficial to those who are good at using it.

The shape of the human hand has not changed much despite millions of years of evolution.

1. Bending

The fingers of a normal person can move flexibly and can bend and extend freely. When you have certain diseases, the normal movement of your fingers can be impaired. At the same time, the bending changes of different fingers can also indicate different diseases. For example, if the thumb is not able to move and is difficult to bend, it may indicate high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, etc.; if the tip of the index finger is bent and the gaps between the fingers are enlarged, it indicates the presence of spleen and stomach diseases and liver and gallbladder diseases; if the middle finger is bent, it may indicate heart and small intestine dysfunction; if the ring finger is bent, it may indicate urinary system diseases; and if the little finger is scoliotic, it may indicate digestive tract dysfunction.

2. Clubbing

Clubbing refers to fingers that are thick at the end and shaped like a club or drumstick. It is caused by pulmonary ventilation dysfunction, low blood oxygen saturation, and long-term chronic stimulation, which leads to hyperplasia of connective tissue at the end of the finger joints, causing the end of the finger to become thick, swollen and clubbed. It is common in diseases such as emphysema, pulmonary suppuration, pulmonary tuberculosis, congenital tetralogy of Fallos, bronchiectasis, cor pulmonale, silicosis, pneumoconiosis, and cirrhosis.

3. Swollen fingers

This type of swelling is non-inflammatory, the skin is natural in color, simple swelling without redness and pain. The reason is swelling of the finger tips accompanied by muscle and tendon atrophy and movement disorders, which may indicate collagen system diseases, such as lupus erythematosus, progressive muscular atrophy, etc.; the other is swelling of the finger joints, with obvious swelling in the middle and not obvious at the two ends, that is, fusiform swelling, often accompanied by swelling and pain in adjacent joints and flexion and extension movement disorders, indicating the presence of rheumatoid activity.

4. Fat and thin

The palms and fingers of a normal person are well-proportioned and have no difficulty in moving. If you feel your fingers are thick and swollen, or feel hard and swollen in the morning, it indicates kidney disease, such as chronic nephritis, chronic pyelonephritis and other diseases. If the entire palm is swollen, thickened, and the fingers are short and thick, and there are protrusions of the frontal bone, mandible, and frontal bone, it indicates the possibility of a pituitary tumor. If the fingers and palms are too thin, in addition to those who are thin due to dehydration caused by gastrointestinal diseases, they are also seen in cervical spondylosis, damage to the spinal nerves, cranial nerves, ulnar nerves and other neurotrophic disorders causing muscle atrophy, and accompanied by finger and wrist movement disorders.

The palms and fingers of a normal person are well proportioned and can move smoothly.

5. Movement disorders

The fingers and palms have an inherent movement, and are normally flexible and agile. You can also self-diagnose diseases by observing their shapes when they are still and in motion. For example, when you are still, stretch your arms and close your eyes. Normally, your hands and arms are straight and motionless or move slightly. People with severe neurasthenia, lateral sclerosis, hyperthyroidism, and cerebrovascular disease may experience trembling fingers, shaking body, and unstable standing. If there is damage to the ulnar and radial nerves, or limb paralysis caused by cerebrovascular disease, the person will be unable to move, or may have wrist drop and finger deformities.

Observe the lines on your palm

Hand lines are the textures of the hands, which can be divided into fingerprints and palm prints. People's hand lines vary greatly and are ever-changing. Moreover, each person is different, and there are no identical hand lines in the world. The curvature of palm lines is closely related to the physiological and pathological changes of the human body. It can reflect the health condition of the human body and can also be used as a window to detect diseases.

1. Normal people's hand lines

1. Bucket-shaped pattern. The fingerprint is shaped like a bucket, circular or spiral, with a trident on each side.

The fingerprint is shaped like a bucket, circular or spiral, with a trident on each side.

2. Dustpan-shaped pattern. It looks like a winnowing basket, with no opening to the side and only one trident. The dustpan-shaped pattern can be divided into the "chi-ji" and "nao-ji" patterns.

3. Bow-shaped pattern. That is, the fingerprint is like a bow, with the fingerprint crossing the fingertips in an arch of varying heights. The absence of tridents is a characteristic of its bow-shaped pattern.

2. The shape of normal human palm lines

1. Palm folds. The wrinkles on the human palm are also called transverse curved lines, which are divided into distal transverse curved lines, proximal transverse curved lines, and thenar transverse curved lines.

2. atd angle: On the palm of the human hand, except for the thumb, there is a Y-shaped trident at the base of the knuckles of each of the four fingers, from the index finger to the little finger, which are called a, b, c, and d tridents respectively. There is also an obvious inverted Y-shaped trident on the side close to the wrist, which people call t. If we connect the three tridents of a, t, and d with a line, we will form an angle at the position of t. This angle can be measured with a protractor. The degree of the angle can be measured with both hands. Generally, for normal people, this angle is less than 40 degrees. If it is greater than 40 degrees, it is considered abnormal. But in general, the atd angle does not change much, and each individual is slightly different. The most obvious changes are congenital abnormalities. If there is a chromosomal abnormality, the ATD angle will increase significantly, so this angle is very meaningful for whether there is a chromosomal abnormality.

3. Abnormal fingerprints and disease diagnosis

Fingerprints are limited in what they can tell about a person's health, and they mainly reflect congenital developmental abnormalities.

Fingerprints are limited in reflecting a person's health, and they mainly reflect congenital developmental abnormalities.

1. The number of bucket-shaped patterns increases. If there are as many as 8 to 10 cup-shaped lines in the fingerprints, the first thing that comes to mind is chromosomal diseases, such as primary ovarian insufficiency syndrome, whose external morphology manifests as short stature, primary amenorrhea, genital skin dysplasia, ovarian dysfunction and infertility. There is another disease with increased number of cup-shaped lines, called cat cry syndrome. The patient may have as many as 8 to 10 cup-shaped lines, and the atd angle is greater than 60 degrees. The external appearance of these patients is round face, large distance between eyes, slanted eyes, skin tags at the inner corners of eyes, small chin, and cat-like crying.

2. The number of dustpan patterns increases. If the number of cuneiform fingers increases, and half of the fourth and fifth fingers are curved, the atd angle is greater than 60 degrees, and the palm lines are of the through type, it is often seen in children with congenital idiocy. The external manifestations of this disease are half-open mouth, protruding tongue, small palpebral fissures, wide eye distance, mental retardation, slow development, etc. In addition, the fingerprints of all ten fingers are in the shape of a dustpan, the palm lines are horizontal, and there is a familial mental retardation, which is also a characteristic of a congenital hereditary disease. Other diseases are also seen in diabetes, psoriasis, congenital glaucoma, etc. In short, fingerprint abnormalities appear.

It indicates the presence of a hereditary disease. The significant increase in bucket-shaped and dustpan-shaped lines is related to congenital developmental abnormalities. It can be seen that it is of great significance to check and identify whether there are congenital chromosomal abnormalities when observing fingerprints. This can help detect abnormalities at an early stage and try to avoid further inheritance and impact on human offspring. Fingerprints have various forms, but there are certain rules. All fingerprint abnormalities caused by chromosomal abnormalities have the following characteristics: an increase in bucket-shaped patterns or double-scoop-shaped patterns, a continuous hand pattern, an atd angle greater than 60 degrees, an increase in arch-shaped patterns, and reverse scoop-shaped patterns on the ring finger and little finger.

4. Abnormal Palm Prints and Disease Diagnosis

Abnormal Palm Prints and Disease Diagnosis

1. Abnormal proximal transverse curved lines. It often indicates neurological or mental diseases. If the proximal horizontal curved line ends at the lower end of the ring finger and a big eye appears there, it indicates brain disease; if the proximal horizontal curved line is of varying thickness or is cut off, it indicates cerebral hemorrhage; if the proximal horizontal curved line is vague and superficial, it indicates brain disease; if the proximal horizontal curved line is obviously wavy, it indicates a nervous system disease; if black spots or stains appear on the proximal horizontal curved line, it indicates a brain tumor, etc. It can be seen that various abnormalities on the proximal transverse lines mostly indicate diseases of the brain, nerves, etc.

2. Abnormal telecentric transverse lines. It often indicates diseases of the heart and blood circulation. For example, if the distal transverse line is below the ring finger and is cut directly by two short, straight and thick lines, it often indicates hypertension; if a hairy dotted line appears at the lower end of the distal transverse line, it indicates cardiovascular and cerebrovascular system diseases; if the distal transverse line is broken, if it is below the middle finger or ring finger, and the break is large, it indicates circulatory and respiratory system diseases; if the distal transverse line is very light and twisted and wavy, and there is a cut line between the distal transverse line and the proximal transverse line or thenar line, with a slant line at the root of the mouth in the center, it indicates heart disease, etc.

Distal transverse abnormality

3. Abnormal transverse lines of the thenar eminence. It often manifests itself in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. If the end of the thenar transverse line is like a triangle, or some palms have a cross shape, it often indicates heart disease; if the thenar transverse line is suddenly cut off at the end, it indicates that cerebral hemorrhage will occur; or if the thenar transverse line is shallow and light, or the thenar transverse line, distal transverse line, and proximal transverse line all have small brown spots, which do not fade when pressed with the hand, it indicates that cerebral hemorrhage will occur. Abnormalities in thenar transverse lines may also indicate other types of diseases. If the thenar transverse lines become wider, it indicates chronic diarrhea; if the thenar transverse lines are not arc-shaped, but extend downward in a straight line or in a wavy shape, it indicates diabetes; if there is a smaller opening at the end of the thenar transverse lines, it indicates rheumatism, etc.
