Strange brown stain like things on my hands

Hi!
So I woke up this morning and while I was washing my hands I realized I had brown stains on them (the palm side).  So I tried washing them off but it wouldn't go away.  I have never experienced something like this before and both hands (palm side) hurts to touch.  They are more on my left hand but I do have some on my right hand as well.

If you could msg me back with some type of answer to this it would be gratefully appreciated.

Hi. This morning when I signing to my wife as communicated. All of sudden I noticed my both palms turned brownish stained and looks like some kind of 'dye' and odor kind of weird-like and I tried to rubbed them off by warm water and soap wasn't off easy thing to do. Plus, my right foot underneath seen some spots of stained. But gradually going away itself. My wife think I must have 'Sleep walking'...

Did you ever find out what the cause of the discoloration was? About 2weeks ago I noticed my right hand had brown marks on the inner parts of my fingers. Then this morning I had a brown streak down the top of my right ring finger.

100% Aloe Vera will stain your skin yellowish-brown. Woke up this morning with the same thing and realized it was from putting too much raw aloe on a sunburn! Left patches all over fingers and hands!

DId you ever find out what was the cause of the orange stain? Its been occuring to me. I'm a guy, and mistified as to why it happens. I have fermented cod liver oil, and sometimes use chilli olive oil as a conditioner, but am not sure it is this causing it.

Yesterday felt very nauseated and shaky( I don't know if this is related) and I figured it was just because I needed to eat something. We had dinner. I'm a very health conscious person normally, but this past week I haven't eaten very healthy (not sure if this has something to do with it). Just before bed I noticed rust/ henna colored stains all over the palm of my left hand. I tried washing it off, but it won't come off. It doesn't smell or itch or hurt. It's just there. I woke up in the middle of the night from a stomach ach and used the bathroom. When I did, I noticed that some marks are now showing up on my right palm too. Anyone know what this is?
