What is the situation when the child's heart-shaped soles are yellow?

Patient's question:

Yellowing of the palms and soles was recently discovered in one day, and the previous treatment history and effectiveness were found: No treatment, test results (please create a medical record below): No tests, previously underwent liver surgery

Doctor's answer:

The palms and soles of a child's hands and feet are yellow, and the most common reason is not related to liver problems, but rather to the food they eat, such as oranges, carrots, etc. If a child has been eating a lot of oranges, carrots, and similar foods recently, it may cause their palms and soles to turn yellow again. In this case, it's not a serious issue—just increasing or temporarily avoiding the food should resolve it. It's best to check liver function to rule out any liver-related problems.
