Question
Is a newborn’s jaundice test at 14 points normal in a day? My child has been like this for a while, and I’m worried it might become severe.
Answer
Abnormal levels of jaundice may require further examination and treatment. The baby’s birth conditions and the mother’s blood type, among other factors, can affect jaundice levels. If the level is unusually high, it is important to seek medical attention promptly, which may involve treatment, even blood transfusion.
