Question
How to deal with high jaundice levels in a 14-week-old baby?
Answer
High jaundice levels in babies may indicate pathological jaundice, usually associated with infection. There is a risk of nuclear jaundice with hyperbilirubinemia, but newborns who have received perinatal care have a lower risk. It is recommended to consult the source of infection early on and actively treat the infection, as this can usually be controlled and alleviated.
