Question
The baby is just 3 days old, and the newborn bilirubin level is over 300. Can it heal itself? What were the previous treatment situations and outcomes? I hope to receive some assistance.
Answer
Bilirubin levels over 300 are outside the physiological range and require active treatment. It is recommended to undergo routine blood tests and liver function checks for diagnosis and actively cooperate with the doctor’s treatment. Consider supplementing with albumin, correcting metabolic acidosis, using hepatotoxic enzyme inducers, intravenous administration of immunoglobulins, as well as phototherapy and exchange transfusion. Consultation with traditional Chinese medicine treatment is also an option.
