many healthy babies have some jaundice during the first week of life. it usually goes away. however, jaundice can happen at any age and may be a sign of a problem. jaundice can happen for many reasons, such as:

MalaCards: Jaundice, also known as icterus, is related to obstructive jaundice and neonatal jaundice. An important gene associated with Jaundice is G6PD (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase), and among its related pathways are Bacterial infections in CF airways and RAR-Gamma-RXR-Alpha Degradation. The compounds cyclophosphamide and n acetylcysteine have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include skin, liver and bone marrow, and related mouse phenotypes are respiratory system and endocrine/exocrine gland.
