Hello,
I can understand your concern, having jaundice from birth can be because of several reasons ( congenital causes, metabolic causes, viral causes, autoimmune causes ), if this is the case, you should be consulting your doctor, and should be thoroughly investigated with all the tests and see what is the reason for this ( such as viral markers- Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C, serum copper, serum ceruloplasmin levels, ophthalmologist check up, autoimmune markers, USG abdomen, complete liver functions tests including PT/PTT/INR and if everything is negative then liver bipsy) please kindly consult your Gastroenterologist and get evaluated. Hope I could help you.
Thank you.
