Hello and welcome to HCM,
Asymptomatic raised bilirubin levels suggest some congenital disorder of bilirubin metabolism.
There are some disorders of bilirubin metabolism which cause jaundice, however, there are some disorders which cause hyperbilirubinemia but no obvious jaundice.
These disorders are Gilbert syndrome, Rotor syndrome and Dubin Johnson syndrome.
Besides total bilirubin you need to get a blood test for indirect bilirubin also.
This investigation will help to know whether there is conjugated or unconjugated bilirubinemia.
None of these disorders cause any problem except for raised bilirubin levels.
A liver biopy may be required.
consult a gastroenterologist for these investigations and further management.
Thanks and take care
