You could be having Hepatitis due to Hepatitis virus. Have you eaten outside food recently, any blood transfusion, unprotected sex. You need more tests to rule out Hepatitis virus like A, B, C etc. Consult your Doctor to get the required investigations and get adequately treated to prevent complications. Eat less fatty diet, eat more fibre rich diet. Drink plenty of water.
