Skin Abnormalities

Thousands of specialized sensory nerve cells under the skin's surface respond to external stimulation. They are sensitive to touch, pain, heat, cold, and pressure. The hands of Jesus are so special and can make magic -- miraculous healing.

There are two main groups of skin disorders: those which involve lumps, bumps, cysts, moles, birthmarks and other abnormalities that remain relatively unchanged for long periods; and those which involve rashes that tend to change in size and character from day to day. Other skin abnormalities include changes in texture and colour, and itching.

Some examples of skin abnormalities include:
1. blisters
2. cracking - eg. chapped lips or eczema
3. Crusting - Healing of a skin disorder such as impetigo or eczema
4. Dry Skin
5. greasy skin or blackheads
6. Severe itching
7. lump
8. rash
9. Roughness or thickening
10. ulcer
11. yellow skin
12. Blue skin
13. Pale skin

Since young, my palms were rather yellow. I was advised by Chinese Physician not to eat too much orange, and my face looked pale. My mother always cooked pig's liver, pig's blood, pig's intestine and pig's organs for me to eat. My father loved to catch fish. He caught fish and frog at the sea. We went to the sea almost every weekends. Those were our family days filled with love and indeed LIFE.

What we eat affect our skin, in addition to the constant exposure of sunlight. I have sensitive skin, sensitive eyes and sensitive body. During my young days, my legs have hives, blisters, and unexplainable 'rashes' which cause itchiness. At Lake Toba, Medan, the temperature was so cold that my hands and finger nail turned blue, cyanosis.

However, this is all the gift of God, the body I have, suited for its purpose, which I now know. My eldest brother has a big tummy. There are times where my father wanted him to reduce weight and even mention about Abdominoplasty (surgical procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen while also tightening the underlying abdominal muscles to result in a tighter, more toned appearing abdomen) and various herbal dieting aids. But they were too costly.
