FAQs
Jaundice can result from various underlying conditions, including liver diseases (such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, or fatty liver disease), bile duct obstruction (due to gallstones, tumors, or strictures), hemolytic disorders (such as sickle cell disease or autoimmune hemolytic anemia), or certain medications or toxins. Identifying the underlying cause is essential for guiding treatment decisions and improving outcomes for patients with jaundice.
Jaundice can be a sign of underlying liver or biliary tract dysfunction and may indicate a serious medical condition that requires prompt evaluation and treatment. While some cases of jaundice may be relatively benign and resolve on their own, others may be indicative of more severe or chronic liver diseases that require ongoing management and monitoring. Seeking medical attention for jaundice is important to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.
Prevention of jaundice depends on addressing underlying risk factors and promoting liver health. This may involve avoiding excessive alcohol consumption, maintaining a healthy diet and weight, practicing safe sex to prevent hepatitis transmission, avoiding exposure to toxins or infectious agents that can damage the liver, and seeking prompt medical attention for symptoms of liver or biliary tract dysfunction.
