When should we be worried about jaundis?

Jaundice: Yes. But, I am needing more information to tell how urgent this worry should be. Is this for an infant? Or an adult? Do you have hepatitis or other liver infection? Is the jaundice related to alcohol?

New onset - now: If you have new onset jaundice with yellowing of the "whites" of your eyes or your skin, then this should raise a red flag and you should obtain prompt medical evaluation.
