Hello...thanks for the question...first of all you should start taking your health issues seriously as presence of jaundice clearly states your liver is not in a normal condition and you need to take your doctors advice of forbidding yourself from taking alcohol... You have to strictly give it up let it be any kind of alcohol. Also itchy skin also known as pruritis is a symptom of liver damage as alcohol tends to damage the liver over a period of time... I hope I have answered your query....
