Over the years in clinical practice, I have learned that the skin is often a silent storyteller of a patient’s internal health. While most people focus on its cosmetic appearance, as physicians, we know that the skin can act as a window to systemic diseases, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, and immune disorders.

As physicians, we often encounter patients who complain of “brain fog.” They describe it as a state where their mind feels cloudy, concentration becomes difficult, memory slips more frequently, and decision-making slows down. While this is not a medical diagnosis in itself, it is a symptom that warrants attention. Brain fog can be temporary, related to lifestyle factors, or it can point toward an underlying medical condition that requires evaluation and treatment.
