Question
My baby is 16 days old and was born via cesarean section. The baby has jaundice. For the past two days, the baby spends all other time being held or crying. When I put the baby down, they start crying immediately. It’s not because of a bowel movement or urine, and it’s not because they are full. They just seem to dislike crying. What could be the matter?
Answer
Based on the above medical description, it is considered that the baby’s symptoms may be caused by newborn jaundice. It is recommended that you take the baby to the hospital for a bilirubin index measurement and undergo blue light therapy, or consider oral administration of dandelion seed granules. Make sure to give the baby plenty of warm water! Wishing you good health and happiness.
