Treatment of jaundice varies depending on the underlying cause. If a bile duct blockage is present, surgery is typically required; otherwise, management is medical. Surgery in patients with obstructive jaundice are associated with significantly higher rates of complications (69% vs 38%, P=0.002) and mortality. Medical management may involve treating infectious causes and stopping medication that could be contributing to the jaundice. The itchiness may be helped by draining the gallbladder or ursodeoxycholic acid.
