those are the white blood cells clotting up together to create a scab layer to keep the wound from getting infected.

Yellow or green mean infection. When a sore is healing white blood cells rush to the area to help it heal. When that turns yellow or greenish it means infection.
If you can soak the sore in hot salt water for ten minutes three or four times a day.
Get some Neosporin ointment. Keep the sore covered if it is in a place where it might get drty. If the area around it gets red and gets wider each day you need to see your doctor.

they are yellow because of the scab. the scab is made of platelets. Platelets are in your blood in order tyo help heal cuts.

No. it is the platelets - tiny blood cells that form scabs. because they are yellow so is the blood. that means blood is clear. it's the red blood cells that make it red.
