Question
Does a newborn with jaundice need to sunbathe their stomach?
Answer
Regular sunbathing can help reduce newborn jaundice, but it’s important to protect the skin. Since newborn skin is delicate, it’s recommended to avoid sunbathing during the strongest midday sun. You can sunbathe your baby’s stomach, but try to keep it away from glass to prevent burns. If symptoms are severe, please seek medical treatment. Considering you haven’t provided specific jaundice values for your child, if the jaundice is severe, treatment may be necessary.
