What can signal a dangerous condition
Vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin) is an essential substance for the proper functioning of the body. Deficiency symptoms can develop very slowly and affect various parts of the body, including the face, writes medical portal Medical Daily.
facial pain
A number of studies have found that facial pain can be an early symptom of vitamin B12 deficiency. In some cases, it is felt right under the eye, in the cheekbone area, and usually only on one side of the face. Sometimes the pain appears over the entire surface of the forehead, descending to the edge of the nose.
Pale skin
People who are deficient in vitamin B12 often appear pale or have a slight yellow tinge to the skin and whites of their eyes. This condition is observed when there are problems with the production of red blood cells in the body due to a vitamin deficiency.
Eye twitching
Since there are also nerves in the eye area, a lack of vitamin B12 can cause eye twitching and eyelid spasms.
