Why does my daughter's soles turn yellow and the palms?

Patient's question:

My daughter is 9 years old. The soles of her feet are yellow, but her palms are not. She has always had a good appetite. Is it possible that she is lacking in some trace elements or due to other reasons?

Doctor's answer:

Your baby's palm is not yellow, but the soles are yellow, which could be due to eating more oranges, carrots, etc., or it could be caused by staining from other substances. It is not a sign of a lack of trace elements. I suggest you consider having your baby checked for trace elements. If your baby's diet is generally good, a thorough check may not be necessary. Pay attention to ensuring balanced nutrition for your child and encourage them to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits.
