Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.

After reading your post, it seems that your husband might be suffering from Jaundice, a symptom of Hepatitis. It is due to inflammation in liver.

I would suggest that he should be tested for :-
1. Liver Function Test(LFT).
2. Complete Blood Count(CBC).
3. Hepatitis B Antigen.
4. Urine examination(Routine/Microscopic).

Medical management can be planned according to the reports of the above mentioned investigations.

I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
