What Causes Blackness In Feet, Palms And Tongue?
When I was a baby my mom told me she came into my room and said my feet, palms of my hands and my tongue were as black as they could be. She started to shake me and rub me and I started to breathe again. This was 72 years ago. What is the side affect of this? Thank you Myrna

Welcome at HCM
I have gone through your query and being your physician i completely understand your health concerns.
In my opinion it was peripheral cyanosis which occurs in variety of conditions like lung infections , heart problems etc. since u have lived 72 yrs of your life i don't think it should bother you a lot and it doesn't make any sense to co relate it clinically now.
Hope you understand....
Meanwhile stay calm
Get well soon
Hope your query is adequately addressed if you still have any feel free to ask
