Nausea and Vomiting
Nausea and vomiting may occur with jaundice. As with other symptoms, whether a person experiences nausea or vomiting depends on the underlying cause of the jaundice. Severe liver disease or viral inflammation of the liver are two possible reasons why people may experience these symptoms when jaundiced.
Both nausea and vomiting cause discomfort. Excessive vomiting can lead to other issues if not promptly managed, such as dehydration and weight loss.
