Hello doctor,
My brother has jaundice, and it is occurring every year during summer. He feels very low and lazy, and his body becomes yellow. He is experiencing weakness and swelling on face and across his ankle. He also has a fever. We do not know why he gets sick every year. In addition to that, he has low IQ. Hence, he is unable to explain his situation well. We are really confused. Can you tell me what is actually happening? Please find attached the various lab reports for your review.
