Fingerprints reveal: High blood pressure
Fingerprints may not only be useful in tracking down criminals, but they could also alert us of high blood pressure. A British study, which looked at 139 fingerprints, found that people with whorl patterns (like a spiral) were more likely to have high blood pressure than people with loops or arches.
And that’s not the only concerning study! Another one, which focused on 500 fingerprints, discovered a connection between the patterns and high blood pressure too.
But it’s not as strange as it sounds once you find out that actually, the whorl pattern is a marker of fetal development problems during some stages of pregnancy. These development problems are what lead people to have a higher blood pressure later on in life.

Diagnostics of feet would be a good one besides the hands.
I do not seem to have any of these tell-tale signs that you pointed out. However, I do have high cholesterol, kidney disease and a few other problems, but the sign are not there. How do you figure that?
