Question
Rewrite according to the ask column A 28-year-old woman, as a new mother, discovered that her child has an abnormality, later finding out it’s jaundice. How should neonatal jaundice be treated?
Answer
Rewrite according to the answer column Your baby is suffering from neonatal jaundice, which is mostly physiological and may disappear after a period of time. If the jaundice becomes more severe, phototherapy (blue light therapy) can be used to help the jaundice fade quickly. Additionally, exposing your baby to sunlight (in the morning) can be beneficial. Medications such as Yinzhu Huang oral liquid can be taken. Regularly check your baby’s liver function and try to ensure they drink plenty of water. Moreover, patients should pay attention to maintaining a light diet, staying relaxed, avoiding staying up late or oversleeping, ensuring enough sleep, and maintaining an exercise habit. In daily life, also avoid overeating or under-eating, and do not indulge in excessive eating or drinking.
