A member asked:

My 7 year old brothers jaundice was at 22 when he was a newborn and he recently had his blood tested and his liver enzymes were high. could it be because of the high levels of jaundice he had? could it have cause damage to his liver?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Liver enzyme levels at age 7 are not lingering from a newborn jaundice that went away. The enzymes reflect irritation/cell injury around the time the studies are done. You did not post the levels so it is difficult to answer in more detail.
