Question
How many days does newborn jaundice blue light therapy require?
Answer
If a newborn, after less than 20 days old, still exhibits jaundice, it indicates pathological jaundice and should be promptly examined in a regular hospital’s neonatal department to determine the cause and actively receive treatment. If it is not caused by bile duct blockage, it can be treated effectively with jaundice-clearing medication and blue light therapy. The duration of the blue light therapy depends on the specific condition, generally ranging from one to two weeks.
