Child May Have Jaundice. Father Has One Kidney Remaining After Posterior Urethral Valves
A coworker mentioned her concern of jaundice in my 9 month old. No history of health problems in baby. His dad has one remaining kidney following Posterior urethral Valves as a child. Normal appetite and wet diapers, no change of stools . No sign of dehydration . Could there be a liver or kidney issue I should be concerned about? He doesn t look jaundiced to me. Thanks Cl
