Why do some Chinese physicians analyze the body based on the fingernails and tongue?
The fingernails indicate clearly the characteristics that correspond to the different organs of the body and overall bodily health.

Cancer of the Urinary Bladder
Etiology
Above all, occupational exposure to chemical compounds (among others from the group of aromatic amines) is considered to be the factor leading to falling ill with cancer of the urinary bladder. Smoking tobacco is also mentioned (cancerogenic substances found in tobacco smoke such as nitrosamines, as well as tryptophane metabolites excreted in the urine). An additional risk factor, which may contribute to the development of more aggressive forms of cancer of the urinary bladder is a long exposure to foreign bodies and infections (mainly Schistosoma haematobium, it concerns African and Small Asia countries, as well as medicines – cyclofosphamide) and small pelvis irradiation due to another tumors in that area.
Genetic disturbances observed in the case of cancers of the urinary bladder are mainly the mutations within suppressor gene p53, oncogene erbB-2, p21, c-myc.

All About Red Moles – What Are Red Moles and Are They Dangerous?
A mole is an area of skin of different color to the rest of the body. Moles are caused by pigmented skin cells – melanocytes – grouping together instead of being distributed evenly. Doctors estimate that every human being has between ten and 50 moles.
Red moles can be alarming. They resemble a cross between a pimple or large freckle and will be about 0.2 inches wide, slightly larger than a freckle, and slightly raised. Like regular moles, they are thought to be partly hereditary in cause. If your mother, father and grandparents have or had red moles that were harmless, yours probably are as well. Moles a person is born with are more likely to be cancerous than ones that develop later.
