Question 1

what does it mean if the bottom of my feet are yellow?

Accepted Answer

Carotenemia?: Yellow palms and soles will tip a savvy physician off to someone who likes yellow vegetables, especially carrots. It's quite common in healthy-lifestyle folks. I trust that your eyes are not yellow from mild jaundice and that the cat did not urinate in your shoes. If this isn't you, talk with your physician next time you visit. If you feel well i would not be concerned.

Question 8

my feet smell very bad and my socks turn yellow, i've changed my socks and shoes through out the day, but it's stii the same result. help?

Accepted Answer

Foot fungus!: It sounds to me like you may have a very bad case of good old-fashioned athlete's foot, which is a fungal infection in the skin of your feet. I would start with one of the athlete's foot spray powders. Spray it liberally into your feet each day and in your shoes. Wash your socks often in hot water with bleach. If it doesn't clear up, see your doc for more aggressive treatment.

Question 9

the bottom of my feet are yellow only noticed that today taking depakote and seraquel also have been feel my stomach is extra hard or bloated with a pain on the right side what could all off this mean?

Accepted Answer

Side effects???: Abdominal pain can occur 10% or more of people and it can lead to liver injury with increase in hepatic enzymes.  Abdominal pain may occur in 1 to 10% of those on Seroquel and abdominal enlargement in 0.01% to 0.1%. Look at the whites of your eyes to see if they have yellowed? Let your prescribing doctor know to rule out any significant side effects.

Question 10

okay so my feet have been staining my socks bright yellow, and now i have bright yellow stains on my bra where my armpit is. what causes this? no diet changes. being treated for pitted keratolysis?

Accepted Answer

: I would Google yellow feet and socks and see if you find an image that matches yours. They discuss with your Dr.   One possibility is that you are eating too many things with lost of yellow pigment such as carrots or V-8.
