Jaundice

Jaundice causes the skin and the whites of the eyes to turn yellow. Too much bilirubin causes jaundice. Bilirubin is a yellow chemical in hemoglobin, the substance that carries oxygen in red blood cells. As red blood cells break down, your body builds new cells to replace them. The old ones are processed by the liver. Bilirubin accumulates in the body and the skin may look yellow. if the liver is overwhelmed by the blood cells breaking down.

Here are some common causes of jaundice:

  • Blood diseases
  • Genetic syndromes
  • Liver diseases, such as hepatitis or cirrhosis
  • Blockage or cancer of bile ducts
  • Infections
  • Medicines[i]

 

If a client presents with jaundice, ask them about this observation and recommend they consult a physician if they were unaware of the condition.  Be clear that you are not making a medical diagnosis but a referral instead.  A client could have a serious medical condition with jaundice so use caution and be vigilant in their service, until there is a medical explanation as to why they have jaundice. Jaundice usually would not be a contraindication; however, it would be best to request a prescription for massage therapy service to ensure the client is not suffering from more severe medical disease that could be contraindicated.

 

The photo on this page is picture of a person with jaundice.  The picture is from Emory University in 1963 and published on the CDC website.  The photo caption states: the viral disease Hepatitis A is manifested here in this photo as icterus, or jaundice of the conjunctivae and facial skin.  HAV is usually spread from person to person by putting something in the mouth (even though it may look clean) that has been contaminated with the stool of a person with hepatitis A. Adults will have signs and symptoms more often than children.

    The importance of acting quickly and seeking help from the right people is never to be overlooked, as this saved me from losing $190K of my hard-earned money after I fell victim to a crypto investment scam.
    I was able to recover my crypto funds because I acted quickly and sought help from people and the internet. I was directed to Morphohack Cyber Service by my friend and I went online quickly to research Morphohack Cyber Service and found several reviews about them and their successes in the recovery of crypto. I was very eager to see what they could do about my case, and they didn’t disappoint me as Morphohack Cyber Service was able to recover my crypto successfully. I was truly pleased by their response and efforts, it was very refreshing to see that there are amazing people like them out there who care about this and do all they can to help you recover your crypto. I’ve put their contact information below this post.

    Be careful of people asking for your money or investment platforms promising huge returns. They lure victims into fake programs. I was scammed of 398,450 U S D. While researching on how to recover my funds, I came across several recommendations on Bitcoin Abuse Forum about coinsrecovery organization. I contacted him via (COINSRECOVERYWORLDWIDE AT GMAIL DOT C OM)and he helped me recover my stolen funds. If you’ve also been a victim, don’t hesitate to get in touch with him. The United States Department of Justice estimates that only 15% of victims of financial fraud report the crime because they are embarrassed, feel guilty or think nothing can be done. There are millions of victims of financial fraud every year.

    I was once told that there was no cure for herpes, but am living proof that with the right approach, it’s possible to permanently overcome this condition. I’m forever grateful to Dr. Utu, a true gift to humanity, who helped me find freedom from the shackles of herpes.

    For years, I suffered in silence, trying countless conventional treatments that only provided temporary relief. But Dr. Utu’s Herpes Herbal Cleanser changed everything. With his guidance, I discovered the power of natural remedies and the importance of holistic well-being.

    Through his expert care, I learned to harness the healing properties of herbs and plants. Dr Utu Herpes Herbal Cleanser not only alleviated my symptoms but also permanently cured me and empowered me to take control of my health. I began to understand the intricate connection between my body, mind, and spirit.

    As I embarked on this journey, I noticed profound changes within myself. My energy levels increased, my skin cleared, and my overall well-being improved. But most importantly, I found peace and liberation from the grip of herpes.

    I’m not alone in my experience. Many others have benefited from Dr Utu Cure’s exceptional care and guidance. His dedication to helping others is a testament to his compassion and expertise.

    If you’re struggling with herpes or any other health challenge, I urge you to keep an open mind and explore alternative approaches. Don’t be discouraged by those who say there’s no cure – instead, seek out innovators like Dr Utu who dare to challenge conventional wisdom.

    Today, I’m proud to say that I’m living a life free from the constraints of herpes. I’m grateful for Dr Utu’s unwavering support and encouragement. His work is a beacon of hope for those seeking true healing and wellness.

    Don’t give up – there is hope. Seek out the wisdom and expertise of pioneers like Dr Utu, and discover the transformative power of nature’s healing gifts."
