Your liver can become inflamed for different reasons, such as infection with hepatitis virus, and excessive drug or alcohol use.
High bilirubin may indicate gallstones, a liver issue, or another condition in adults. You are recommended to get a check up done at the earliest.
Bilirubin may fluctuate if you are having Gilbert syndrome. However, it may be highest during an infection (such as the flu), following periods of fasting, and during menstrual periods in some women too.
A bilirubin of 20 or more on a blood test will be marked as high. One may have jaundice if the total bilirubin reaches a level roughly between 35 and 50 micromoles/liter.
Different labs may have slightly different ranges for what they consider normal bilirubin levels. On average, total bilirubin levels between 0.2 and 1.3 mg/dL are considered normal for children and adults.
