Gilbert Syndrome Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
9. Jaundice
People with Gilbert syndrome often have more bilirubin flowing through the blood than other people. Bilirubin itself is yellow in color, and this yellowness can cause the rest of our body to take on a yellow tinge.
The yellow coloration is usually quite mild in Gilbert syndrome and is often noticeable in the eyes only, although this can still be disturbing to patients. Jaundice is not necessarily dangerous in itself, but it is a sign that something is wrong with the liver. While Gilbert syndrome is not dangerous, some other conditions that cause jaundice are, so it is important to get it checked out if you have not done so already.
