Dacryoadenitis does not cause yellowish skin. Yellowish complexion may result from accumulation of skin melanin, severe skin dehydration, or excessive consumption of foods containing yellow pigments. However, it could also be related to health conditions such as liver or gallbladder diseases, malnutrition, or jaundice. It is important to undergo timely medical examination to determine the underlying cause before initiating treatment. Maintain a healthy diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and ensure adequate rest.
