Your color is coming back

Hello! Emotion: drinks



Could you please tell me what "Your color is coming back" means?
  

Top answer

This is about people with little skin pigmentation. When you suffer a shock or a fright, your body pulls your blood into your muscles to prepare you to take action, the so-called "fight or flight" response. This takes blood from the vessels near the surface of the skin, making the skin pale.

  • This takes blood from the vessels near the surface of the skin, making the skin pale.
  • When the emergency is over, the blood returns to the surface vessels, making pale skin look pinkish again.
  • That's the color referred to, and the doctor in the text takes the return of the color as an indication that his patient is no longer frightened.
