Purple when it appears on the four corners of the face (i.e. the forehead, the tip of the nose, and the cheekbones) is the color of immortality; green is the color of Yin.

When a person's skin color turns (cyanosis), it is often the first sign of (cyanosis). It is mainly caused by abnormal levels of acid or oxygen in the blood. When the heart's blood circulation system is poor, the respiratory organs are injured, or there are changes in the blood itself, the skin will show this color. The parts of the body where blue is most likely to appear are the lips, fingernails, toes, ears, cheeks, tip of the nose, etc., among which the lips have the highest appearance rate.

Representative diseases include kidney disease, cirrhosis, cancer, and more special ones include silver acid poisoning.
