Helping you understand Our healthcare
Jaundice is a condition where the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes turn yellow due to an increased level of bilirubin in the blood. Bilirubin is a yellow pigment produced during the normal breakdown of red blood cells.
Medical causes of jaundice include:
Liver diseases (e.g. hepatitis, cirrhosis, liver failure)
Bile duct obstruction (e.g. gallstones, tumors)
Hemolytic anemia (rapid breakdown of red blood cells)
Drug-induced liver injury
Genetic disorders (e.g. Gilbert’s syndrome)
Along with yellowing of the skin and eyes, symptoms may include:
Dark-colored urine
Pale or clay-colored stools
Fatigue and weakness
Abdominal pain (especially in the upper right side)
Nausea, vomiting, or itching
Yes. While mild jaundice may resolve on its own, severe or untreated jaundice can lead to liver failure, brain dysfunction (in newborns), or indicate a serious underlying disease like cancer or chronic hepatitis.
Recovery depends on the cause and severity. Mild cases may resolve within 1–2 weeks, while chronic or complicated cases (like hepatitis or liver disease) may take months or require lifelong management.
