High Bilirubin
High bilirubin often indicates liver dysfunction, haemolysis, or bile duct obstruction. Elevated bilirubin levels cause jaundice, yellowing of the skin and eyes. Routine blood tests can detect high bilirubin, prompting further investigation. Treatment of high bilirubin depends on identifying and addressing the underlying condition. Early diagnosis is crucial in managing high bilirubin.
