What Causes Yellowish Tint In Eyes While Having Idiopathic Clubbing Of Fingers?
What is idiopathic clubbing of fingers? Can this symptom have any connection to a male-rotation as an infant? I am a 22 year old male. I have yellow dry burning eyes and a constant clearing of my throat. My fingers were classified as idiopathic clubbing and that started a year ago and not getting any better. A chest x-ray didn t show any abnormalities.

Hi
Thank you for contacting healthcare magic.
Clubbing is loss of angle between nail & its nail bed. It has several causes which include these ; Bronchial/lung cancer, emphysema, valvular heart diseases, protein-losing enteropathies, thyroid acropachy, etc.
In a few percentage of individuals, it can be because of no reason & it is hence called idiopathic (unknown reason).
