Question
A one-month-old girl, the baby’s bilirubin level reached 19 on the fourth day after birth, what should be done?
Answer
This condition can be gradually improved through medication treatment, and it is recommended to follow the doctor’s guidance for the treatment. You can choose blue light therapy or medication treatment, but it is necessary to have regular check-ups and consult with the doctor in a timely manner. Regarding the specific time for medication treatment and tracking the child’s condition, you can ask questions to the doctor. At the same time, if the baby shows rapid breathing, it may be related to jaundice, but there is no need to worry excessively.
