A member asked:

What do you advise if i was born with jaundice and was treated. i now have yellow skin around my mouth. is this normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unrelated: The yellow you appear to have around your mouth has nothing to do with your jaundice at birth. If you are a smoker this could be a stain, but evaluation by your doc would be a good reason to see if this is an important issue.
