Question
What should I do if my newborn’s jaundice recurs with persistent low fever?
Answer
If jaundice persists and recurs with persistent low fever, it is generally considered that the child may have liver-related issues or pathological jaundice. It is recommended that parents take their child to the hospital for immediate treatment and examination, and stop breastfeeding. Parents should provide additional nutrition and care for the baby. When jaundice recurs, it is important to prevent the baby’s skin from being exposed to sunlight, and to use physical therapy methods to remove the jaundice.
