Question

My wife is 23 years old and our newborn has jaundice. Can hemolytic jaundice be effectively treated?

Answer

Based on your description, it appears to be ABO-type hemolytic jaundice, which is generally considered a mild form of hemolytic jaundice. With early treatment, it can be completely cured. The most commonly used treatment for newborn jaundice is blue light therapy, and it is recommended to start treatment as soon as possible to avoid delaying the condition and worsening it. Additionally, the patient should maintain a moderate diet, regular work and rest , and adjust physical and mental health. In daily life, it’s important to maintain a good mood, eat light and soft foods, drink plenty of water, and consume more vegetables and fruits.
