Question
A friend’s baby is experiencing eye discoloration, and I would like to understand the causes of this condition and how it should be treated. Do they need to go to the hospital for a diagnosis?
Answer
Hello, I’m glad to provide you with an answer. If the baby is showing eye discoloration, it may be due to neonatal jaundice. It is recommended to visit a neonatal department for examination to determine whether the jaundice is physiological or pathological, thereby deciding whether further treatment is necessary. If the child indeed has phlegm in the throat and regardless of body position changes, the whistling sound persists, then treatment is indeed needed. If there is an excessive amount of phlegm, immediate medical attention is required.
