Jaundice: A condition that occurs when bilirubin, a red-orange substance produced when red blood cells break down, builds up in the blood. Jaundice can be caused by a number of medical conditions, including hepatitis, gallstones, and tumors.
Liver disease: Liver dysfunction can cause yellowing of the skin and eyes.
Biliary dysfunction: A blockage in the bile duct system can cause yellowing of the skin and eye

My family noticed it, years ago, and I ended up having gall bladder removed.
