Causes of Yellow Nails?

What leads to yellowing of nails?

• If the nails become discolored, it usually means that you have an infection or nail fungus. 

•  It also mean that your nails have been stained by a product like nail polish, or that you're having an allergic reaction. 

•  Vitamin or mineral deficiencies can also make them yellow. 

• In some cases, nails that stay yellow even after treatment can be a sign of thyroid problems, psoriasis, or diabetes. 

• In rare situations, yellow nails could even be a sign of skin cancer. 

• There's also a condition called yellow nail syndrome, which causes continually yellow nails and breathing or lymphatic problems.
