Question
My baby is ten days old and has a bilirubin level of 30. The doctor suggests blue light therapy, but I think it’s caused by breastfeeding because I have postpartum hypertension and am taking blood pressure medication. What are some good suggestions for newborn jaundice that won’t go away?
Answer
If your baby has persistent jaundice, it’s important to seek medical treatment and consider giving them a small amount of glucose water. When the weather is good, encourage outdoor activities and sun exposure to help alleviate jaundice. Ensure your baby gets ample deep sleep, take probiotics, and use Yinjiehuang oral liquid for treatment. It’s also crucial to carefully monitor your baby’s condition and seek timely medical attention if the situation is severe, following the doctor’s advice for symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to your own care, maintain proper diet, and avoid exacerbating the condition. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you, thank you.
