Jaundice

  • Has the skin or have the whites of the eyes turned yellow?
  • Have the faeces become lighter and has the urine turned darker in colour?
  • Are you suffering from itching?
    Jaundice usually indicates disorders of the liver or gall bladder. It may also suggest increased hemolysis.

For a more detailed history-taking in the case of suspected hepatic disorders, refer to textbooks on internal medicine.
