Medical Spanish - entry 2

I had to go looking for new vocab today because the word of the day site didn't have anything new for this entire week.  Today I have two ways to say jaundice:

ictercia

piel amarillenta

I will ask my in-laws about these terms tonight.  My thoughts are:

ictercia - probably pronounced ick-ter-CI-uh

piel amarillenta - piel means skin, and amarillo means yellow, so I'm wondering if amarillenta is yellowed.
