Jaundice

Jaundice is a condition characterized by the yellowing of the skin and the whites of the eyes due to high levels of bilirubin in the blood. Bilirubin is a yellow pigment produced during the normal breakdown of red blood cells. Normally, the liver processes bilirubin, which is then excreted in bile. Jaundice indicates a problem with the liver, bile ducts, or red blood cells. 

Types of Jaundice

Pre-Hepatic Jaundice

Caused by excessive breakdown of red blood cells (hemolysis) before reaching the liver.

Hepatic Jaundice

Caused by liver diseases such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, or liver cancer, leading to impaired bilirubin processing.

Post-Hepatic Jaundice

Caused by obstruction of bile flow from the liver to the intestines, often due to gallstones, tumors, or strictures.
