Our smart bodies know how to tell us when something’s off. But the signs aren’t always obvious. Sometimes, little things we might ignore, like dark circles, or itchy skin can be signals that deserve more attention. Learning to spot these early can help you stay on top of your health and get help when needed.

1. Mouth Sores and a Swollen Tongue
If your tongue looks shiny, red, or feels sore, it might be more than just irritation. These signs can show up when your body is really low on folate (a type of vitamin B). You might notice pain when swallowing or have small sores in your mouth. It’s advisable to check in with a doctor, especially if it doesn’t go away.
2. Constant Itching
We all get itchy sometimes, but if it’s happening a lot or all over, it might be linked to something more serious. Pregnant women often feel itchy, but if it gets worse at night, you should check. Other possible causes include allergies, liver, dry skin, or kidney problems, thyroid issues, or even nerve-related conditions like shingles.
3. Dark Circles Under Your Eyes
Not getting enough sleep is the usual reason for dark circles. But if they stick around even after rest, they could point to anemia—a lack of healthy red blood cells. Eating well and getting enough iron might help brighten up your under-eyes.
