Jaundice itself is not contracted; rather, it is a symptom of an underlying condition that affects the liver or the body's ability to process bilirubin. Common causes include viral hepatitis, liver disease, gallstones, or hemolysis. These conditions can result from infections, excessive alcohol consumption, certain medications, or genetic disorders. Therefore, addressing the underlying cause is essential for treating jaundice.
