Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
A few months ago, I ate lots of fennel seeds. Due to this my skin becomes yellow and shows extreme pigmentation of yellow color in sunlight. Please suggest me the treatment.
Please help.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I just read your query. As you have mentioned you ate a lot of fennel seeds a few months ago, then if it had any side effects, it should be at that time not after so many months. The yellow-colored pigmentation you are currently talking about may be due to low hemoglobin or jaundice. For that, you need to get your blood tests done. For hemoglobin, you can check your Hb (hemoglobin), and for jaundice, you can go for a serum bilirubin test. But I advise you to visit a nearby general physician as he will do the clinical examination.
In clinical examination, he would check you and will tell you whether you need these tests or not, or maybe there is some other reason behind yellow pigmentation. So, visit a doctor at least once so that a clinical examination is performed and you will come to know about the proper cause. Once the cause is known, it would be easier for you to take treatment rather than receive a generalized treatment.
I hope this helps.
Thank you.
