Jaundice is a symptom that occurs due to excessive amounts of bilirubin in the blood. The causes for jaundice are several. Bilirubin is a buildup of old RBCs that have been processed by the liver.ilirubin that fails to escape is seen as yellow pigmentation of the skin. Neonatal jaundice is relatively normal; bruises turn yellow when they heal; malaria, hepatitis, hemolytic anemia, pancreatic cancer and cirrhosis are serious causes of jaundice. 1  Hypercarotenemia.
Jaundice, also known as icterus, is a yellowish or greenish pigmentation of the skin and whites of the eyes due to high bilirubin levels. It is commonly associated with itchiness. The feces may be pale and the urine dark. Jaundice in babies occurs in over half in the first week following birth and in most is not a problem. If bilirubin levels in babies are very high for too long a type of brain damage, known as kernicterus, may occur. Causes of jaundice vary from non-serious to potentially fatal. Levels of bilirubin in blood are normally below 1.0 mg/dL (17 Âµmol/L) and levels over 2â3 mg/dL (34-51 Âµmol/L) typically results in jaundice.
