Jaundice: When someone's skin turns yellow it is called jaundice. It can mean several things from a viral illness such as hepatitis, or can signal liver inflammation or liver failure. It can even provide a clue to cirrhosis from drinking too much alcohol, or even liver cancer. There are too many reasons, and the person should be seeing a Doctor to get to the bottom of it. Good Luck!!
