 How different diseases can influence your skin
Insulin resistance is the state of decreased tissue sensitivity to insulin. It is a hormone that
is responsible for regulating blood sugar levels, as well as for the proper functioning of the
entire body. Insulin is released shortly after eating a meal. It plays an extremely important
role in the metabolism of fats, proteins and carbohydrates. In healthy people, energy from
food is immediately processed and used by muscles, adipose tissue and organs, while in the
case of people struggling with insulin resistance, various disorders most often occur.
Symptoms.
One of the main symptoms of insulin resistance is obviously excessive weight gain, which
very often becomes a reason for further diagnosis. Many people struggling with the disease
also complain of a feeling of drowsiness right after eating a meal, they also struggle with
irritability, low mood and problems with memory and concentration.
Interestingly, the characteristic symptoms of the development of insulin resistance in the
body also include emerging skin problems.

 Insulin resistency – skin problems
• Actinic keratosis - increased levels of insulin in the blood can cause the growth of epidermal cells, i.e.
keratinocytes, and fibroblasts. The symptom of this condition is primarily skin warts. People suffering
from keratosis also struggle with discoloration. The skin becomes rough and thick to the touch. most
often around the neck, nape or armpits. Dark spots can also appear on the mucous membranes, in the
nose or on the genitals.
• Acne - As a result of the increased production of insulin in the pancreas, metabolic disorders occur,
which are responsible for the appearance of common acne. These changes most often affect areas on the
body that secrete much more sebum, mainly the face (mostly the jawline), back, and less often the chest.
Acne includes, among others, closed and open blackheads, pustules, papules or purulent cysts.
• Hair growth disorders - insulin resistance can also affect the hair follicles, because they do not
receive the right dose of nutrients. The high concentration of insulin in the blood contributes to a drastic
shortening of the hair growth phase and the miniaturization of the hair follicles, which leads to
androgenetic alopecia.
• Soft fibromas - appear mainly on the neck, eyelids, armpits, groin. These are benign skin lesions that
take the form of brown or flesh-colored tumors.

 Thyroid diseases

Thyroid diseases such as Hashimoto's affect the metabolism of the growth and
development of many cells in the body. Too low levels of hormones produced by
the thyroid gland contribute to metabolic disorders, which may also result in
skin symptoms.
In hypothyroidism, the skin most often becomes pale, dry and sallow and
prone to breakouts. Patients with Hashimoto's complain of swelling around their
hands and face, and are also more sensitive to cold. Thin hair and broken nails
are common. A characteristic symptom of Hashimoto's disease is hyperkeratosis
and peeling of the skin around the elbows and knees, which are darker in color -
this is the so-called 'dirty knees' symptom

 Hypothyroidism

• Hypothyroidism is associated with a slowdown in metabolism, as a result of which the

production of polysaccharide substances is impaired. They include, among others hyaluronic
acid, which has water-binding properties. Its deficiency, therefore, leads to a loss of skin
hydration.

• The secretion of sweat and sebum is reduced, resulting in dry and flaky skin. The process of
formation and renewal of the keratinized layer of the epidermis is slowed down, thus the lipid
barrier, whose task is to protect against excessive water loss, is disturbed. When these processes
are disrupted, the skin loses its natural moisturizing mechanisms and is unable to maintain
adequate hydration.

• Hypothyroidism also contributes to the excessive deposition of hydrophilic substances in the

subcutaneous tissue - mucopolysaccharides, which easily absorb water, as a result of which
swelling occurs most often around the face (easily noticeable eyelid swelling or lip swelling).
The swellings can be described as pasty - when pressed by the fingers, a depression remains
(they do not deform). 5
