Question

My newborn baby’s face and eyes have turned yellow. What medication should I use to remove the yellow color?

Answer

Based on your description, your baby may be experiencing jaundice. Typically, newborns may develop physiological jaundice within the first few days after birth, which usually does not require medication and will resolve on its own. In such cases, it is recommended that you closely monitor your baby’s jaundice status and consult with a pediatrician to determine if further examination or treatment is needed. If it is confirmed that your baby has pathological jaundice, the doctor will provide an appropriate treatment plan based on your baby’s specific condition, which may include medication, phototherapy, or other necessary measures. Remember not to administer any medication to your baby without medical advice to avoid unnecessary risks.
