Hello,
Thank you for writing to HCM
Yes, low hemoglobin count causes pale skin.
I advice you to check your Hb level.
Take Tab. albendazole 1 stat (for de-worm only 1 tablet then stop it ), Tab.Anofer daily once for minimum 3 months.
Eat iron rich food such as dates, fig, spinach and goat's liver.
Consult a dermatologist in person with test reports if you continue to have same problem.
Regards.
