Question

What are the symptoms of infant jaundice?

Answer

The symptoms of infant jaundice include yellowing of the skin, mucous membranes, and sclera. They typically appear within 2 to 3 days after birth, reach a peak between 4 to 5 days, and then gradually fade away within 10 to 14 days. In some cases, treatment may be required, such as phototherapy or blood exchange therapy.
