Advanced Diagnosis and Treatment for Jaundice

What is Jaundice?

Jaundice is a condition where the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes develop a yellowish discoloration due to the accumulation of bilirubin—a yellow pigment formed during the breakdown of red blood cells. Normally, the liver processes and eliminates bilirubin. However, if the liver is damaged or bile flow is obstructed, bilirubin builds up in the blood, resulting in jaundice.

Causes of Jaundice

Jaundice develops when there is imbalance in bilirubin production, processing, or elimination. Common causes include:
  • Liver diseases: Hepatitis, cirrhosis, alcoholic liver disease
  • Bile duct obstruction: Gallstones, strictures, tumors blocking bile flow
  • Hemolysis: Excessive breakdown of red blood cells
  • Genetic conditions: e.g., Gilbert’s syndrome
  • Infections: Viral hepatitis or other liver-related infections
  • Medications or toxins damaging the liver or bile ducts

When to Visit a Jaundice Clinic?

Seek medical attention if you experience:
  • Yellowing of the skin, eyes, or tongue
  • Dark urine or pale stools
  • Persistent weakness, fatigue, or loss of appetite
  • Abdominal pain, bloating, or swelling
  • Sudden onset jaundice with fever, vomiting, or confusion
  • Unexplained weight loss or persistent itching
  • History of liver disease, hepatitis, or heavy alcohol use

Diagnosis of Jaundice at the Clinic

At a Jaundice Clinic, specialized investigations are performed to determine the cause and severity:
  • Blood tests (LFTs, CBC, viral markers) to check liver function and detect infections
  • Imaging (Ultrasound, CT, MRI, Fibroscan) to assess liver damage, blockages, or stones
  • Endoscopic tests (ERCP, EUS) for bile duct or pancreatic disorders
  • Liver biopsy in selected cases for detailed evaluation

Treatment Options for Jaundice

  • Medications: To manage infections, reduce liver inflammation, and treat complications
  • Endoscopic procedures (ERCP, stenting): To clear gallstones or relieve bile duct obstructions
  • Surgery: For tumors, strictures, or severe bile duct blockages
  • Hospital-based care: For acute liver failure, infections, or advanced cirrhosis
  • Liver transplant evaluation: For end-stage liver disease when other treatments fail
