I took a liver test 5 months back. My direct bilirubin level was 0.57, indirect 1.07, and total 1.67. I took the test again 4 days back and have attached the report. I eat a regular diet including non vegetarian food and consume alcohol once a week. I have some doubt whether I have jaundice or not. Please verify my report and if there is any problem, please guide me on diet.

Your previous bilirubin was slightly elevated but not in jaundice range. If your latest test (attached) is similar and you are symptom free, it is not jaundice. Reduce alcohol and follow a liver friendly diet.

Dear Sir/Mam, after blood test report, my baby has 14.1 gm/dl and jaundice. My baby is 1 month old. In this situation, is phototherapy necessary for my baby? Is it harmful for her body?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My blood test shows Bilirubin (Direct): 0.6 mg/dL, Bilirubin (Indirect): 1.5 mg/dL, and Bilirubin (Total): 2.1 mg/dL. Are these levels normal or do they indicate a problem?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My baby is a 7 day old girl. Her bilirubin level as per the test report is 10.80 mg/dL. Is any medication required, or is sunlight exposure enough?
