Jaundice is a condition characterized by yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes (sclera), caused by high levels of bilirubin (a yellow pigment) in the blood. It's a sign of an underlying disease process, not a disease itself.

What Is It
Bilirubin is byproduct of red blood cell breakdown, processed by liver, excreted in bile. Jaundice occurs if: 1. Too much bilirubin produced (e.g., hemolysis). 2. Liver can't process it properly (e.g., hepatitis, cirrhosis, Gilbert's syndrome). 3. Bile ducts blocked, preventing excretion (e.g., gallstones, tumors).
