Normal range of jaundice index

The jaundice index is an important indicator to measure the bilirubin level in the body, and its normal value range is 0.3-1.2mg/dL. Abnormal jaundice index may indicate a variety of health problems, including excessive fatigue, improper diet, hepatitis, bile duct obstruction and cirrhosis. If you have any discomfort, it is recommended to seek medical attention in time and take targeted treatment measures under the guidance of a doctor. The details are as follows:

1. Excessive fatigue: Excessive fatigue may cause transient damage to liver function, which in turn causes an increase in the jaundice index. Long-term high-intensity work and stress will affect the body's normal metabolic function, causing the liver to overload and transient bilirubin metabolism disorders, which will cause an increase in the jaundice index. It is recommended to reduce work intensity, ensure adequate rest and sleep, exercise appropriately, relax, relieve stress, and ensure the body's self-repair ability.

2. Improper diet: An unreasonable diet structure and excessive intake of fat and sugar may increase the burden on the liver and lead to an increase in the jaundice index. High-fat and high-sugar foods in the diet will increase the metabolic burden of the liver, hinder the metabolism and excretion of bilirubin, and thus cause an increase in the jaundice index. It is recommended to adjust the diet, reduce the intake of high-fat and high-sugar foods, increase the proportion of vegetables and fruits, maintain a balanced diet, and drink appropriate amounts of green tea, honey water and other drinks that help the liver detoxify.

3. Hepatitis: Viral hepatitis can cause liver cell damage, resulting in an increase in the jaundice index. Viral hepatitis such as hepatitis B and hepatitis C are common causes of increased jaundice index. These viruses attack liver cells, causing liver damage and inability to metabolize and excrete bilirubin normally. For treatment, you need to follow the doctor's advice to use antiviral drugs, such as entecavir tablets and lamivudine tablets, perform liver function tests regularly, maintain good living habits, avoid drinking, exercise appropriately, and enhance immunity.

4. Biliary obstruction: Bile duct stones or tumors may cause bile duct obstruction, affecting bilirubin excretion and leading to an increase in the jaundice index. Biliary obstruction will directly affect the normal excretion of bilirubin, causing it to accumulate in the body and causing an increase in the jaundice index. In the case of bile duct obstruction, it is recommended to follow the doctor's advice for surgical treatment, use antibiotics such as ceftriaxone sodium injection when necessary, pay attention to rest after surgery, maintain a light diet, avoid high-fat foods, and prevent recurrence.

5. Cirrhosis: Long-term liver disease develops into cirrhosis, which leads to severe liver damage and increased jaundice index. Cirrhosis is caused by fibrosis and nodular regeneration of liver tissue due to long-term chronic liver inflammation, which leads to severe liver damage. For treatment, it is necessary to follow the doctor's advice to use liver protection drugs such as bicyclol tablets, and regularly perform liver function tests, strictly control diet, avoid alcohol, pay attention to rest, keep a good mood, and prevent complications.

In order to maintain good health, you should pay attention to adjusting your lifestyle, seek medical treatment in time and follow the doctor's advice for treatment. If the symptoms persist, you should seek medical treatment in time and take targeted treatment measures under the doctor's guidance.
