Patient's question:
19-month-old baby, why is the palm, sole, and nose turning yellow recently? Does eating pumpkin and oranges daily have an impact? What condition causes the skin to turn yellow?Doctor's answer:
The heart is yellow. The first consideration is jaundice of the skin. You can observe the baby's medulla conjunctiva to see if there is any yellowing. If it is white and yellow, you should consider liver and biliary diseases. You should also check the baby's urination and any yellowing. Eating pumpkin will not cause palm and yellow heart. If it is not what I mentioned above, it is just a simple palm and a yellow heart, and you can wait and see for now.
