Question
My son is one year old, and his skin has started to turn yellow recently. I heard it’s neonatal jaundice. The doctor suggested using a blue light therapy, but I’m wondering how many days it needs to be treated?
Answer
Based on your description, the treatment for neonatal jaundice may include blue light therapy and medication. The specific duration of the therapy depends on the type and severity of the condition, and it is recommended to consult with a doctor for an accurate treatment plan. At the same time, maintaining hygiene and environmental health, a mother’s diet should be light, and adequate rest is beneficial for the baby’s gradual recovery.
