As a medical professional with expertise in hepatology, I can provide you with information on the treatment of jaundice. It's important to note that jaundice is a symptom, not a disease in itself. It is typically caused by a buildup of bilirubin, a yellow pigment, in the blood, which can be due to various underlying conditions such as hepatitis, liver damage, or blockage of the bile ducts.

In adults, jaundice itself usually isn't treated. But your doctor will treat the condition that's causing it. If you have acute viral hepatitis, jaundice will go away on its own as the liver begins to heal. If a blocked bile duct is to blame, your doctor may suggest surgery to open it.
