Question
My child was a bit yellow when he was born, with a yellowish body and face. The doctor said it was physiological and not a big deal, but someone said jaundice can lead to cerebral palsy in children, and I am very afraid. Please ask: How should glucose and Yin Chen Wu Ling syrup be combined for newborn jaundice?
Answer
Based on your description, you can alternate feeding glucose and Yin Chen Wu Ling syrup, but it is generally recommended not to feed sweet and salty foods to babies under one year old. The guidance is to feed more milk and water, allowing the baby to urinate more frequently to excrete jaundice. At the same time, giving the baby probiotics and medication to reduce jaundice can help in the disappearance of jaundice. For severe newborn jaundice conditions, immediate symptomatic treatment is needed, appropriate medication should be used, otherwise it may recur. Additionally, patients should maintain a cheerful mood to avoid aggravating the condition. I hope the answer to this question can be helpful to everyone. Thank you.
