Around the Eyes

Your kidney health is reflected in the skin in this area. A condition such as dark circles could indicate a malfunctioning kidney or dehydration.

Cheeks

Upper cheeks: An upper cheek’s skin is attached to the lungs. Polluted air can cause breakdowns here.

Lower cheeks: Poor dental hygiene can cause acne here. Improve your oral hygiene and prevent blemishes by brushing and flossing regularly.

Nose

It is believed that the nose is connected to the heart in Chinese medicine. You can modify your diet habits to prevent high blood pressure and to boost your heart health and blood pressure by avoiding energy drinks, reducing salt intake, and consuming plenty of fruits and vegetables.

Ears

Dehydration may also lead to breakouts in the ears, which mirror the condition of your kidneys. Throughout the day, drink more water and avoid eating too much salt.
