Question

How to treat neonatal jaundice after 20 days?

Answer

At 20 days old, if the baby’s bilirubin levels are slightly elevated but there are no discomfort symptoms, treatment may not be necessary. However, if there are symptoms such as yellow urine due to damp-heat in the liver and gallbladder, consider medication treatment and complement with probiotics, glucose water, sunlight exposure, and pay attention to breastfeeding and observe for three days after stopping breastfeeding.
