Hands can turn green due to several factors, including exposure to certain chemicals, such as copper compounds, which can react with sweat and produce a green stain. Additionally, wearing jewelry made from copper or bronze can cause this discoloration, especially if the metal reacts with moisture or skin acids. In some cases, green hands may also indicate a reaction to specific dyes or pigments in materials that come into contact with the skin.
