Is it true that when you're anemic?!


Question: Is it true that when you're anemic!?
that the coloring inside your lower eyelid is all pink!?

I heard this today that if the inside of your lower eyelid had darker pinks and red, you are not anemic, but if it is only pink and not red, it is a sign that you might be!.

Is this true!? I checked my lower lids and they are a light pink with no red on the inside at all!. I can recall other times in my life that they were red!.

Answers:
Pale conjunctiva can be a sign of a anemia, but it's not a main sign!. Usually if they are pink, they are fine, it's when they're super pale that it can indicate anemia!. Of course just because you're eyelids are pale doesn't mean you're anemic, nor do red eyelids mean that your NOT anemic!. A better indicator of anemia is feeling tired, fatigued and weak all the time!. Also increased heart rate and shortness of breath on exertion (which can also be caused by lots of other things as well)!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
