Answer
According to your description, newborn jaundice is usually a normal physiological phenomenon within the first 5 days after birth, and visible jaundice may appear after 5 days. If the jaundice level is high, it can be relieved through methods such as sunlight exposure and oral glucose water. If the jaundice level is very high, medication may be required. Newborn jaundice can be categorized into physiological jaundice and pathological jaundice, with the serum bilirubin content of physiological jaundice typically not exceeding 225.
