Question
A one-month-old baby has recently been diagnosed with jaundice and the condition has been confirmed. How should one handle newborn jaundice?
Answer
For physiological jaundice, there is usually no need for special treatment, and it will usually resolve on its own within a few weeks. For pathological jaundice, medication and blue light therapy may be required, which can typically help improve the condition and it is recommended to get more sunlight. Since the cause of jaundice can vary, it is advisable for patients to visit a regular three-level A hospital for a systematic examination to determine the appropriate treatment method. Additionally, in daily life, it is important to maintain a regular routine, keep warm, and for dietary recommendations, it is suggested to consume more light and soft foods, as well as to drink more hot water.
