Is it a concern if we notice that our skin is turning a little yellowish?

YES: Check the white areas of your eyes and the color of your urine. If the whites are yellowing and/or the urine has become brownish then you are seeing signs of hepatitis. Get in to see the MD ASAP. If you have this, you may be at serious risk and may be a hazard to those around you. Good Luck -- do not wait.

Yellow skin: It could be. Yellow skin could represent jaundice. At your age, I would suggest abstinence from alcohol, and you should see a physician locally to have this checked out.

Possible Jaundice?: It’s important to consult your GP at the first sign of skin yellowing.
