Question
After giving my baby a bath yesterday, I noticed that their skin turned yellow. I’ve heard that children might have jaundice, and it can be good or bad. I’m very worried. How should I handle high bilirubin levels in newborns?
Answer
Generally, newborn jaundice will naturally fading within a month. If there are no abnormalities found through ultrasound and blood tests, and the baby is breastfed, it may be due to breast milk jaundice. It is recommended to stop breastfeeding for three days, take Barberry Extract granules, and take probiotics to aid absorption. After three days, recheck the skin and bilirubin levels. In addition to immediate treatment, newborns with jaundice should also pay attention to maintaining appropriate dietary habits and digesting body nutrition in daily life. I hope this answer can be of help to you, thank you!
