    pail: A pail is a bucket, typically with a handle, used for carrying liquids or other materials. It doesn't fit the context of the sentence describing someone's appearance. pale: Pale means having a light or washed-out color, particularly used to describe someone's complexion when they appear ill or tired. It is the correct option for describing the patient's appearance in the given sentence. pall: A pall can refer to a dark cloud of smoke or fog, or it can mean a cloth covering a coffin. Neither of these meanings fits the context of the sentence describing someone's appearance. peel: Peel can mean to remove the outer covering or skin of something, such as fruit or vegetables. It doesn't fit the context of the sentence describing someone's appearance.
