Yellow Skin Is Noted Diffuse. This coloration is termed carotenemia. It can result from a number of both benign and malignant causes.

Diffusion of lucifer yellow beneath the stratum corneum marks a pathway for the lateral movement of small molecules of potential importance. Certain external conditions like hot or cold weather can cause symptoms to flare up. Blisters may reoccur in response to stress, menstruation, illness, or sun exposure.
