Hi,
Thank you for providing the brief history of you.
As the yellow stains are unknown, you should get a thorough assessment done. IT can be because of the socks, pants, a color or a skin issue. Post understanding the matter can help understand better to you about the cause for it. In my clinical practice i do not feel this could be anything to do with serious matter.
