Jaundice

My 10 month old just got over a nasty bout of the flu. Vomiting, diarrhea, etc.
Now the tip of his nose is turning jaundice.
His pediatrician is out of town for two weeks.
Anyone have any idea of what could have caused this?
He never had it when he was born,but my second oldest did...stayed in hospital for 2 weeks with it...under those heat lamps...poor thing.
Tried looking on line for causes,but all I'm finding is newborns with it and adult alcoholics...
I know it can be a sign of a bad liver as my dad is a drunk...and he's got it.
Could the flu have done this?
