Question
My baby is 17 days old and has recently developed jaundice symptoms. How should it be treated? Will it be severe? Do I need to use any medications?
Answer
The baby currently has pathological jaundice. If the condition is severe, blue light therapy may be required and repeated as necessary. If there is an infection, antibiotics or antiviral medications can be used. Jaundice is quite common in newborns, but it requires active treatment. Rest assured, and wish your baby a healthy growth!
