Little more yellow around the eyes than I expected to see when checking. Pain in side with constipation for 2 weeks.

Almost impossible to say. I have slightly yellowish colour around the eyes but I know my bilirubin count is normal having had 6 monthly tests post transplant. Some people just have it. The pain could be to do with constipation. But really you need to get checked out by medic and probably have some bloods done if its giving you anxiety.

Is your bilirubin normal? If so then you aren't jaundiced. Ge it checked

Whilst we do appreciate that people are worried about jaundice, can we remind all members that this is against our community rules- see pinned post.

Photographs are very difficult to clearly see, and no one on the forum is medically qualified to assess for jaundice.

We would suggest that you should always see your own medical doctors for a complete physical examination and discussion of symptoms.

Or alternatively, if you are very concerned and your skin or the whites of your eyes look yellow or you may also have itchy skin, darker pee and paler poo than usual- call NHS 111 immediately.

More details can be seen in this NHS link;
