Question

My little nephew was born less than a month ago, and his face has turned yellow with jaundice. I want to know how long it will take for the jaundice to disappear?

Answer

Jaundice in newborns is a normal physiological phenomenon and typically resolves naturally within a week. However, if the baby continues to cry persistently and is restless, the jaundice may progress into a pathological phase, at which point medication may be required to clear it up.
