Background: Rakta and Yakruta-Pleeha (Blood, Liver, Spleen) are considered to be the sthana for Pitta, and any Vikruti in these leads to the manifestation of skin issues, one such condition is Vivarnata (skin discolouration). Yellow discolouration of the skin, sclera, urine, and stool is named Kamala as per Ayurveda. In the classics, a detailed description presents the disease. By seeing the similarities in the symptoms, it can be correlated to Jaundice. Sometime the features are not prominently exhibited, and the disease comes out with mild symptoms, one such condition is presented here, Gilbert's syndrome, is an inherited liver condition (a genetical condition caused by a mutation in UGT 1 A 1 gene, creating less bilirubin-UGT an enzyme that breaks down bilirubin) in which liver can't fully process a compound called bilirubin (by broken RBCs and released in faeces and urine). In this condition bilirubin builds up in blood stream, causing hyperbilirubinemia (recorded in blood analysis). It is often not diagnosed until early adulthood, as it may never show any symptoms (jaundice, nausea, diarrhoea, abdominal discomfort, fatigue mainly).
