What cause yellowing of the palms and feet in a 1 year old baby?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Carotene: You are probably giving too much baby food in the form of carrots, squash. They are yellow because they contain carotene that is used in the body to make vitamin a. But it is entirely benign and will do no harm. The yellow color will go away as the carotene is used up.
