What are the symptoms of neonatal jaundice? How can it be prevented?
Answers
Neonatal jaundice is categorized into physiological jaundice and pathological jaundice. Physiological jaundice usually appears within a week after birth and does not require special treatment; it can recover on its own. Pathological jaundice includes conditions such as jaundice caused by blood type incompatibility and breast milk jaundice, which require treatment. Parents can observe their newborn’s condition to detect any abnormalities early on.
