Meet Paul Karason, the man turns blue! Paul Karason, 57, has a rare blue skin condition. He originally lived at Oregon but now had moved to Madera, California.
He started the gradual transition from fair skin into a dark blue color 14 years ago.
The cause of his discoloration may be linked to a substance he once drunk called colloidal silver, which is made by extracting silver from metal. A medical condition called Argyria has been linked to such discoloration since the days when silver solutions were used as antibiotics.
Karason does not believe drinking the potion is what caused his discoloration, but does believe it happened because he rubbed it on his face to treat a skin problem.
“I’m anxious to try green,” Karason joked to TODAY’s Matt Lauer in New York Thursday. “You get a little bored with blue.”
Recently he has given his latest interview with TODAY which has reveled information about Recluse to celebrity, Other medical issues & Self-medication
