Question
Newborns may exhibit yellowish skin and facial color after birth, which doctors refer to as physiological jaundice, usually requiring no special treatment. However, there is concern that jaundice might lead to cerebral palsy. How should one treat severe neonatal jaundice?
Answer
Physiological jaundice usually resolves on its own, but if the jaundice level exceeds 12, treatment should be considered. Oral administration of Bixin or blue light therapy can be used to alleviate symptoms. If jaundice is severe, immediate treatment is necessary to prevent recurrence. Maintaining a positive mood also helps in alleviating the condition. I hope these suggestions are helpful to everyone. Is there anything else I can assist you with?
