Jaundice
A dangerous medical condition called jaundice causes the whites of your eyes and skin to appear yellow. This is the result of an excess of bilirubin in the blood. The breakdown of hemoglobin, a component of red blood cells, produces the yellowish pigment known as bilirubin. Normally, your liver receives bilirubin from the circulation. After that, it travels via bile duct tubes. A material known as bile is transported into your small intestine by these ducts. Bilirubin eventually leaves your body through your feces or urine.When your blood contains an excessive amount of the yellow-orange chemical bilirubin, you get jaundice. Your red blood cells contain it. The liver removes it from the circulation when those cells perish. Nevertheless, if something isn’t right and your liver isn’t functioning properly, bilirubin can pile up and make your skin seem yellow.
