My hands aren't a normal color. Normal color is rather pinkish, and mine are somewhat pale, white, and sometimes dark yellow. Why are my hands this color and what can I do to get better? I already went to the doctor and got 2 blood tests. They say I am perfectly normal just that I had a lot of protein in my body. That's kinda the point though since I"m trying to gain mass. Is the protein making my hands this color?

Dx, you said in another post that your doc said you had liver problems and curtailed your protein consumption. The most likely culprit for yellowish skin is liver related.
