Mild Jaundice

Q: What is mild jaundice?

Mild jaundice describes a faint yellowing of the skin and/or whites of the eyes (scleral icterus) caused by a mildly elevated bilirubin level — typically between 35–85 micromol/L, at which it becomes visually detectable. Bilirubin is a breakdown product of red blood cells that is normally processed by the liver and excreted in bile. Mild jaundice occurs in physiological neonatal jaundice (extremely common in newborns as the liver matures), mild haemolysis, Gilbert's syndrome (a common, benign hereditary condition causing mild bilirubin elevation particularly with fasting or illness), and in early or mild liver disease.
