Question
The newborn was born six weeks premature and has already been born for a week. They have been in the incubator for a week, but the total bilirubin level is still 190, indicating severe jaundice. What should I do if the newborn’s jaundice persists for thirteen days!
Answer
I’m glad to help clarify this for you. If the bilirubin level is too high, hospital treatment is necessary. It is best to go to the hospital to have the jaundice level tested. If it is too high, hospitalization may be required for jaundice treatment, and the baby should be given white fungus tea. For newborns with severe jaundice, it is recommended to consult a doctor promptly and follow their advice for timely treatment, and not to use medication blindly to avoid exacerbating the condition. The above suggestions are for reference only.
