Hi there,
Thanks for using HCM.
There are a number of different causes of jaundice.
Some of them are viral infections (Hep A, B, C and E), alcohol intake, certain medications, obstruction in the bile duct etc.
Recovery depends on the cause.
I would advise you to consult a gastroenterologist for a complete evaluation and plan the treatment.
