Question
Can a baby with a jaundice index of 7.3 receive the second dose of Hepatitis B vaccine?
Answer
Your baby may be experiencing pathological jaundice, which is often related to liver function impairment, hemolytic reactions, or bile duct obstruction. Before beginning treatment, it is necessary to identify the cause. Children have weaker immunity and are therefore more susceptible to pediatric surgical diseases. For parents, there is no need to be anxious. You should immediately take your child to a specialized hospital for examination and treatment, and follow the doctor’s instructions for routine checks and appropriate medication.
