Jaundice? How to clear up eyes?

3 years ago•2 Replies

Wondering how to Clear up my eyes. I was worried at a certain point that this was jaundice. however I'm not experiencing any of the other symptoms associated. I do consume alcohol quite a bit. I first noticed this in December of 2020. And I stopped drinking for about 2 months and didn't notice much of a change or decrease. This could of been existent before December, but who knows. I never really paid attention. What are your thoughts?

It is against forum rules to post photographs of eyes or other body parts for comment by members who arn't qualified to comment plus photographs reproduce really poorly on screen so appearance on screen can be totally different that what they appear in reality. The only way for you to find out if you have any degree of jaundice is to visit your doctor for some simple blood tests and a face to face look at your eyes. Jaundice results as a build up of bilirubin and this is easily tested for in blood tests.

I would direct you to the NHS site on jaundice nhs.uk/conditions/jaundice/

Hi HelpMeStayHealthy, as mentioned by a forum member, we cannot comment on photos and therefore I will close this post for comments. If you are worried about your alcohol intake, may I suggest discussing this with your GP? If you would like to chat about your worries with regards to you liver, the nurse led helpline is open Monday to Friday 10-3 0800 652 7330.

Best wishes,
