Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Get your urine tested for hepatitis A and exclude hepatitis B, C, and E. Drinking water is ok but specific treatment should be started. Blood group of yours and your husband is to be tested. Incompatibility noted, consult a physician for examination and take advice on the treatment.

Rh incompatibility can cause jaundice. This investigation is done as antenatal care. Antigen can be given during pregnancy. No wall routine management and specific treatment after diagnosis. Monitoring is required and phototherapy is also indicated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ashok Kumar Dash
