A TikToker recently caused quite a stir online when she shared a video of herself crying with bright yellow tears.
The unusual phenomenon left people stunned and intrigued, prompting discussions about the possible causes of such a peculiar occurrence.
Usually, tears are supposed to be clear. So when they are not clear, it can be quite unsettling. However, there are various reasons why tears can appear yellow.
While the presence of these oils is natural, excessive production of oil can lead to tears that are not only yellow but also oily in texture.
Remarkably, this is not considered dangerous unless it persists for an extended period.
When there is pus of irritation in the eyes, tears can take on a yellow hue. However, in such cases, the yellow tears are typically accompanied by other symptoms, signaling the presence of an underlying eye health issue.
Interestingly, a commenter on the TikTok video mentioned a third potential reason for yellow tears that might surprise many.
According to the commenter, if a person recently visited the eye doctor and had their eyes examined with a yellow dye called Fluorescein, it could result in yellow tears.
This dye is commonly used during eye exams to help identify certain eye conditions, and its presence can cause tears to appear yellow.
Phoebe Sheppard, a 21-year-old student, got her first set of acrylic nails in October of the previous year and didn't have them removed until January.
When she took them off, she discovered green "moldy spots" all over her fingernails.
Terrifying photos show all ten of her nails covered in green, murky patches, which were caused by a fungus growing underneath her nails when water became trapped.
After realizing the severity of the situation, Phoebe sought guidance from a pharmacist and was given a fungus serum to apply to her green moldy nails.
However, she was eventually forced to let the patches grow out on their own after trying other remedies and using the ointment without success.
Her friends jokingly referred to her nails as "moldy claws," adding to her discomfort.
After the incident, Phoebe now urges others to learn from her ordeal and give their nails a chance to breathe between manicures.
She emphasizes the importance of prioritizing nail health and taking breast from artificial enhancements to avoid similar consequences.
