Question

The newborn developed jaundice on the third day after birth, which subsided after a few days. However, by the 26th day, jaundice reappeared on the face, and the whites of the eyes appeared slightly yellowish. How should one treat neonatal high bilirubin levels?

Answer

Jaundice in newborns, if caused by pathological jaundice, is relatively common in infants. It is recommended that parents take their child to the hospital for a detailed examination to determine the cause and proceed with further treatment. This step is crucial for the child’s early recovery. The impact of neonatal jaundice on the patient should not be overlooked. Once related symptoms are detected, medical consultation and treatment should be sought promptly, and attention should be paid to a diet that is light and easy to digest. It is hoped that neonatal jaundice patients can receive professional treatment.
