Physiognomy is the science that determines diseases by the various marks on the skin, the condition of the skin and the face.
"Skin diseases are a fiction, they are internal and sometimes nervous diseases, which are manifested only by changes on the skin." I.V.Davydovsky
Sudden darkening of hair may be a symptom of liver cirrhosis
