Answer

You can understand it almost literally. As if something was creating a vacuum inside, and his flesh was being sucked inwards. "Wan" means sick or pale-looking.

Answer

Wan means pale.

'Sucked in' isn't a normal expression to describe someone, but I'd understand it to be a bit like a balloon that has lost its air.  Thin and deflated.
