Question
How to handle neonatal jaundice in winter?
Answer
Neonatal jaundice usually peaks around the 7th day and subsides around the 14th day. Now, it has already returned to a normal jaundice level. Oral medication can be taken. If it remains the same, blue light therapy can be considered. This is more effective. Pay attention to the baby’s feeding. Generally, treatment mainly involves blue light therapy, combined with other symptomatic treatments. Delayed treatment may lead to bilirubin encephalopathy.
