my eye sockets look bruised and I have been bruising easily why is this?

I have really bad yellow around my eye sockets (friends said it looked like bruising) and it has been this way for about 2 months or so. My eyes themselves are not yellow just eyelids and skin around them. I have noticed in the last couple months also that I bruise very easily, even scratching slightly hard. I used to binge drink fairly regularly (a pint sometimes, sometimes a 24 pack of beer, sometimes a whole fifth) from 15-20 but haven't for over a year.



So I am worried it might be Hepatitis C because I used to have unprotected sex with this girl with hepatitis C. I got tested as soon as she found out she had it and every STD requiring blood or urine samples was tested and it came back all good. I got tested a year after having sex with her and it has been a year since I was tested, I am 21. I was worried even though the risk is VERY VERY low that I would get it due to it needing blood to blood contact.

Does this sound like anything?

Hello,
yellow is an indication of a liver disorder, but, I have read it can also be due to food sensitivities, some folks, when they eat foods they are allergic to, get extremely black circles under their eyes, sometimes this can look yellow.

Irregardless, I certainly suggest that you see your physician.

Yellow is an indication of a liver disorder. You need an in-person consult with a physician.
