Question
Is a newborn jaundice level of 350 severe?
Answer
A jaundice level of 350 is quite severe. If blue light therapy fails to reduce bilirubin levels, other treatment methods should be considered. Newborn jaundice is caused by high levels of bilirubin in the body. The higher the jaundice level, the greater the risk of bilirubin entering the brain, thereby increasing the likelihood of brain disease. It is advisable to immediately seek hospitalization and follow the doctor’s guidance to help the child recover. Do not attempt any self-treatment methods. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
