Question

About three to four days after birth, neonates often exhibit more pronounced jaundice, and have already received treatment in the hospital. What are the specific manifestations of neonatal jaundice?

Answer

Neonates typically experience physiological jaundice after birth, which appears around 2 days postpartum and gradually subsides after 7 days. The bilirubin level should not exceed 12.9. If the bilirubin level is too high or persists for too long, it may indicate pathological jaundice, which requires medication treatment. It is recommended to regularly bring the neonate to a public hospital for bilirubin level checks.
